You mean why there are no additional records added for the nameservers and that is because the servers for .com and .org are disjoint so answers for .com names can't return records that are in the .org zone. The com servers do not load the address records for dns1.domainmail.org et al. because they are not within or below any of the zones served on those servers. Even if those records were included in the zone the nameservers will not make them visible. $registrar is actually saying that a host record exists. Depending upon the relationships of the names involved this can result in glue records being added to the zone. To actually look up speedyiguana.com a recursive nameserver has to go and ask the org servers for dns1.domainmail.org which will get glue as the servers are a.geoip-dns.org which are also the servers for geoip-dns.org itself.
