Another use case of tls-server-end-point is for cases where you are unable to support
tls-exporter, ie. in some languages TLS/SSL stack doesn’t expose data required for
tls-exporter. In those cases it is better to have tls-server-end-point for channel binding
instead of not having anything available.

I believe tls-server-end-point is generally best
left unimplemented to
guide efforts towards supporting the stronger tls-exporter.
One use case I see for tls-server-end-point is that it allows for supporting channel
binding by setups where TLS is terminated by some reverse proxy, thereby protecting
against _some_ but not all attack vectors that tls-exporter protects against.
