Currently it links to this, which lists the homeservers in a room and requires authentication:
https://spec.matrix.org/v1.8/server-server-api/#get_matrixfederationv1querydirectory

I think you meant to link to this for the current non-static room directory:
https://spec.matrix.org/v1.8/server-server-api/#get_matrixfederationv1publicrooms

https://github.com/tulir/mauliasproxy already works for room aliases with no spec changes, and I'd expect room directories could be implemented easily too (but haven't checked)

Just having the room ID isn't enough. To join a room, we need to know what server(s) can be used to join (like the via parameter in matrix URIs)
