Maybe I am missing something, but it seems to be that the term
'answers' and 'response' are currently being used interchangeably in

I opened a issue on Github for that, with an example.

It would be good to have the conversation here on the list instead.
First: we were probably sloppy in the use of the word "answer". In many
cases, that should be "response".
The response is the entire DNS message that is sent in reply to a
question.
However, in your GitHub comment, you suggest that an "answer" is both
the contents of the Answer section *and* the contents of the Authority
section. Why would the contents of the Authority section be considered
an answer?
