Re: [DNSOP] QNAME minimization is bad

[Paul Vixie]

we need Q-M, since without it NXDOMAIN is ambiguous. a full resolver 
("recursive nameserver") who looks up wrong2.wrong1 deserves to know 
that wrong1 doesn't exist so that it need not ask the root name servers 
about wrong3.wrong1. whatever ambiguities may come from Q-M will have a 
lower cost than those it addresses and according to engineering 
economics would be addressed separately from the original problem and 
after the current solution, unless a new solution is available that 
addresses both.
