Not "can", its not an option it is mandatory!

The browsers will NOT accept HPKP pinning if you don't add an currently
unused backup key.


Regarding DANE and HTTPS: It's not the Client who checks the
TLSA-Records and verifies the KSK/ZSK Signatures, it's your Nameserver.
Only few people host theyr own Nameserver at home or on theyr smartphone
etc... - usually the Nameserver of your ISP is used - so: just intercept
the last mile and DANE is broken.
