That makes sense really, because the intent of such a DNSBL is to list IPs which are in the 'probably belongs to a home user who might be more likely to harbour a trojan spambot, and who has an alternative route for outbound email via their ISP's relays' class. The 'dynamic' tag is merely a shortcut, and doesn't cover the whole scope.
