I think the interpretation section covers this: the AAAA DS-GLUE replaces
any colliding AAAA glue, and then delegation following proceeds as usual.
The resolver is not instructed to change its behavior based on whether the
A or AAAA glue records were authenticated.  I think this is your option "b".

If you want behavior "a", you have to do the thing shown in
https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/html/draft-schwartz-ds-glue-02#section-4.3.
