Nice to see. I'm seeing recommendations to set minimal-responses to avoid
truncation problem anywhere and I'd like to have documented somewhere that
it just won't help...

Truncation happens only if the ANSWER section is too large, and as

truncation should be null.

I'm curious if there's any case where the AUTHORITY section is needed to
proper function of DNS. I think I've seen reports about truncaetd responses
with AUTHORITY section added ... maybe intermediate firewall or
loadbalancer truncating them...

For UPD fragmentation it is an entirely different matter, of course. But
should default settings really be optimized to accomodate broken firewalls?

default or non-default, if weare behind firewall or loadbalancer, we should
know when they cause troubles.
