I don't want to go too far OT, but had a question if someone wouldn't mind answering it or pointing me to some materials.

I've been digging into DNS and TLS lately. Given the way ACME works (essentially using DNS to verify you own a domain before giving you a cert), what's the reason you can't just put your public key in a DNS record? I'm assuming it has something to do with security issues at the DNS level, but don't really know.
