   Found some more info. Apparently "automatic" means the phone will try   
   to use encryption via port 443/HTTPS to connect to a nameserver, but   
   fallback to unencrypted via port 53/DNS if the nameserver doesn't   
   support DoH (DNS over HTTPS) or DoT (DNS over TLS). So, you might be   
   using DoH or DoT for DNS lookups, or you might not. Flip a coin.   
      
   Instead I chose to specify a DoH/DoT nameserver by selecting "Private   
   DNS provider hostname" to enter one.one.one.one for Cloudflare. I then   
   tested by visiting https://one.one.one.one/help/ to verify DoH or DoT   
   were used by my phone.
