Interesting. I was not aware that it was an exclusive or type situation.

It's important that they're exclusive - it would be very much harder to build an isolated test bed (with "fake" root hints) if BIND insisted on
always trying to reach all of the compiled-in root hints.

Or a real root hints file that differed from the compiled-in version, either in the current case (where there is a lot of overlap so it actually wouldn't matter that much) or for a private internet (lower-case 'i') with no overlap.
