I like the text and how it's improving.

Note that a validating resolver MUST still validate the signature over the NSEC3 record to ensure the iteration count was not altered since record publication (see {{RFC5155}} section 10.3).

It might be better to clarify that this "MUST" does not really apply to the SERVFAIL case.  (The text around has changed recently.)

I think this SERVFAIL will generally be best implemented by simply ignoring any NSEC3 above the corresponding limit.  Maybe I'd even standardize the case that way, but I don't care really. It's an advantage unstated in the draft that this is very easy to do, leaving no room for bugs (e.g. unintentional downgrade opportunities).
