 +1

 There should be no discussion about TLS 1.2 beeing definitely the protocol
 to use until TLS 1.3 is launched. WordPress with a 26% market share should
 do the same as google, firefox, letsencrypt and many others do: start with
 the highest and strongest encryption available and fallback if needed.
 However I guess this is not an argument because WordPress development
 cares more about backward compatibility.
