Certainly, you are correct that running and using a local recursive
nameserver doesn't solve that (or any other) Firefox-internal problem.  
Nor indeed, inherently, address any such Firefox-internal problem in any
way.

You might notice that, in a burst of extreme cleverness, I nowhere so alleged.

What I said was that I atrongly approved of the quoted Slashdot comment,
endorsed running and using a local recursive nameserver as a basic
security measure that ought to be routine, and then detailed how to
implement it.

You weren't actually confused by that deliberate and overt shift in
topic, were you?
