I don’t quite get what the point is. No matter how good you encrypt the server name, the destination IP address will always be visible. Are there that many webservers sharing the same IP, that this makes a noticeable impact? Am I missing something?

Yes, especially for simpler/smaller websites there can be hundreds or thousands behind a single IPv4 address.
Or if you have a larger infrastructure provider, use any kind of CDN or “target cloaking” or whatever there could be millions of different hosts on a single publicly visible address. (Or more like multiple shared addresses).
