Having done this myself, I think there are several situations in which it
is common to look up a name shortly before adding it to a zone. e.g. you
expect a name to exist, whoops, fix the omission, then have to wait a TTL.
Or you are trying to come up with a domain name that hasn't already been
registered and you forget to send the query to the TLD servers instead of
the local cache.

If these is the worst problems that ANC causes, I think we agree they're not all that bad.

Can be quite annoying if the TTL is long. Even so, I like aggressive
negative cacheing.

Same here.  It solves real problems for things like IPv6 rDNS lookups.
