The thinking is simple: if the DNS server is able to tag all outbound packets with some uniqueness information, then there is no ambiguity concerning tracking down which server responded. Any mechanism that relies on a subsequent query will provide a less than perfect indication of the server involved, as load balancing or similar could in fact shift focus to a new server. When I've raised this issue previously, the response has been that the result of the subsequent query will be "good enough."
