Comment (by cypherpunks):

 Why do I need to trust the DNS and TLS systems so that I can avoid it
 later with the onion address it provides? And hoping each time that I am
 redirected to the genuine onion address

 With client-side rules, you only trust the community once which should
 provide the proofs that the onion addresses are genuine anyway
