I would triply emphasize that. Data from the root servers show that the vast majority of queries they get are garbage: technically ill-formed or for names that have never existed and likely never will.
This is another reason that I really like a local copy of the root DNS zone.

That copy has historically been a secondary copy. But I'm trying to learn more about BIND's newer "mirror" zone option, which I think DNSSEC validates the the transferred copy.

LocalRoot using TSIG keys seems related and is on my reading list.

I would like to get to a point where many DNS servers could safely have a local copy of the root DNS zone.

See the pertinent RFCs for what "safely" means in this case.
