I think you need to understand that what's in the zone file is of little
importance -- what matters is how the data is being sent "over the wire" (as
they say). The consumers of DMARC (mail servers) only care about the data that
gets sent to them over the wire. If it's correct over-the-wire, then you can
just ignore how the records are represented in the zone file on the master
and/or slave. Nothing to see here, move along.
Do you have access to some sort of packet capture program (e.g.
wireshark/tcpdump/snoop) and at least some rudimentary skills in using such a
tool? Such a tool and the knowledge to use it, will serve you well if you
intend to progress as a DNS administrator.

digest and thus included a bunch of messages which are unrelated to the topic
at hand.

Yes,
I have read that part of the FAQ, which concerns people asking whether they
need to add escape characters manually in the DMARC record.
I do not add these myself. As shown by my examples below, the entry in the
master zone is free of any escape characters. However, when an update is
triggered, the escape characters are being added to the entry on the slave zone
automatically. Why is this happening and how do I stop it?
