Do you mean it's the most promising measure for authoritative servers?
If so, and if nsec-aggressiveuse is more widely deployed in resolvers,
and if the authoritative operators feel the pain so keenly, I'd rather
imagine they are willing to pay the cost of deploying DNSSEC.

If you mean it's the most promising measure for recursive servers, I
simply don't buy the argument.  (I made that comment while the wg
discussed nsec-aggressiveuse and it toned down quite a lot in that
sense as a result of it, so I believe it's based on a wg rough
consensus).

So, either way, I don't see a strong case for the trick of using
nsec-aggressiveuse on an unsigned zone with DNS cookies.
