My preferred definition is the one originally given by Paul Vixie, amended by

A lame delegation is said to exist when one or more authoritative
servers designated by the delegating NS rrset or by the child's apex NS
rrset answers non-authoritatively for a zone.

To me this would not be lame if the NS RRsets are identical. You might
have still have a broken server, but if parent and child agrees, I
would not call it "lame".

It's possible I got this completely wrong, but if one of the NS answer 
authoritatively, then it doesn't serve a proper NS RRset, so it's not possible 
for that server's response to agree / be identical with that on the parent 
side. As a result, the delegation (to that server) is lame, no?

Excuse me, there was a fatal typo; I meant:

If one of the NS answers non-authoritatively, then it doesn't serve a proper NS 
RRset, so it's not possible for that server's response to agree / be identical 
with that on the parent side. As a result, the delegation (to that server) is 
lame, isn't it?

Best,
Peter
