You're being naieve if you don't think SNI will be fully deprecated in the future when a standard is settled on and reaches wide-adoption.

Scare prompt fatigue is real. If you're constantly blasting users with "XXX wants to do Y" which sounds scary, you're training them to just accept without thinking.

Well yes, SNI will be removed, when ESNI reaches far enough adoption. That's my point! ESNI does what SNI does, but securely.

You fix an insecure implementation by replacing it with a secure implementation, not removing the feature completely.
