Network protection / Defender SmartScreen / Missing DNS Filtering

Question

It seems that the Microsoft features are utilizing "URL filtering" to protect the endpoints, -wouldn't it be an option for Microsoft to also add DNS filtering and thereby prevent any type of communication, -not only HTTP(s), -with domains that host phishing scams, exploits, and other malicious content
