The paragraph reads:

If the "root-servers.net" zone is later signed, or if the root servers are 
named in a
different zone and that zone is signed, having DNSSEC validation for the 
priming queries
might be valuable.
The benefits and costs of resolvers validating the responses will depend 
heavily on
the naming scheme used.

It is still accurate as it stands, does not lead to an assumption of what name 
would be signed and, more importantly, strongly indicates that the name that 
eventually gets signed might be different than root-servers.net. I'm not sure 
why we would want to remove that.
