Ah. So you don't like identifying magic zones (other than in-addr.arpa,
ip6.arpa, .example, .local, ...). Fair enough.

But AIUI, the proposal is an observation that Fujiwara's
NXDOMAIN-from-NSEC proposal can be implemented safely today for the root
zone, so we may as well go ahead and do that while considering wider
usage.

Nothing about it prevents Fujiwara's technique from moving on, and
eventually being more widely deployed. If changes are needed in the
root or resolver behavior later... well, they would have been needed
anyway, right?


I don't expect to change your mind but hopefully I understand your
position and can thus disagree with your actual stance. ;)

Cheers,
