Would the lack of A records affect pointer records?  Seems like it would.


pointer records are independent on A/CNAME records and irelevant in thie
case.

At this stage one still needs A records to be reachable by everyone.  One 
should also ensure you are reachable over IPv6 as lots of the world behind IPv6 
only links as their ISPs don’t have enough IPv4 addresses for every one.  
Instead they have to use some form of IPv4 as a service which is significantly 
more expensive to operate compared to straight routers.

That is, if bob.tld is hosted by example.com can you simply have

   NS ns1.example.com
   NS ns2.example.com
   MX mx.example.com

wwwCNAME Caution-www.example.com

Without specifying

   A 11.22.33.444

(I am pretty sure this is *technically* allowed, but is it really OK to do or 
are there reasons not to do this?)
