You misunderstood. You need permission from the user before you start spying on them, i.e. if the endpoint is not your property or you're not authorized by the owner (e.g. you have root) you should ask the person who owns it before monitoring what they're doing, fair?
DNS snooping is a real problem, invasive ISPs and wifi networks are real scenarios for people. You'll be able to disable it on your endpoints if you think it's worse than plaintext DNS (?), but we should do something for the users affected. Not everyone is as lucky as you.

How doesn't DNS over TLS fix those issues?

The people doing the snooping are *heavily* invested in plaintext DNS, and are pushing back very hard against DoH, with pretty dubious arguments. Some of them say, "You've got us all wrong, we love DNS privacy, please just use DoT instead!"

I have a question, is HTTPS worse than HTTP? You might be surprised to learn that some people used to argue that, it sounds pretty silly now.

The cost/benefit for https vs http is much much much (280 char limit here) more skewed towards the benefit side.
