Probably an expectation for floating IPs for load balancing instead of DNS.

Relatively simple inside a network range you control but no idea how that works across different networks in geographical redundant setups

Agreed; I have no idea how you'd implement that across multiple ASNs, which is definitely a requirement for multi-cloud or geo-redundant architectures.

Seems like you'd be trying to work against the basic design principles of Internet routing at that point.
