Where 8446 fits
Why 8446 is special
It removed every cipher suite with a known weakness rather than deprecating them, and cut the handshake from two round trips to one. Deleting options is what made it both faster and safer.

RFC 8446 labels TLS 1.3. Version numbers and document numbers coexist here, and engineers use both.
Reuse of a small set of standardised Diffie-Hellman groups is what made precomputation attacks against many connections worthwhile.

TLS 1.3 deleted the weak algorithms rather than discouraging them, and the smaller negotiation also halved the handshake latency. Fewer options produced better security and better performance at once.
