The NS records and A records in your parent are glue.  Because there is
a delegation point (that NS record) they cannot speak with authority
over anything at or below that point, which is why you can add NS
records or additional address records as a superset.

Ideally, what you have as your NS records and the DNS server's A and
AAAA records should be identical to what your parent has, but most
people are ok with the superset requirement.  A real DNS server would
ask you and only cache what your parent returns as glue, as well.

BTW, I wrote major parts of BIND 9.  DNS is my thang :)
