Interesting problem!

A few thoughts:

1. Text added that says something along the lines of "although the QTYPE
used is AXFR, implementations should transfer the zone over whatever
protocol they have been configured to use, which includes both AXFR over
DNS/TCP and AXFR over TLS [RFC9103].  Note that IXFR transfers, which
requires serial number alignment, MUST NOT be used."

2. The security considerations section should suggest (very strongly)
that the use of TSIG when sending a notification is RECOMMENDED.  (I
recognize this is guidance for operators more than implementations, but
implementations should ensure this is possible).

We'll address both points in the next version. Thanks!

Kind regards,
Martin
