sanity check, someone?

i believe that in dnssec, an empty non-terminal has a proof that the name exists, and a proof that there are no RR's. thus, vastly different from the signaling for NXDOMAIN.

Yes, it does. With NSEC3 it is an explicit proof. With NSEC you have to read between the lines.

NSEC3: see RFC5155 sections 7.1 and B.2.1.

NSEC: if foo.example is an empty non-terminal, then there will exist an NSEC record such as "echo.example NSEC alpha.foo.example ..." - the ENT's name is part of the "next domain name".
