CNAME rule: a node with a CNAME cannot contain any other records. for the node domain.tld: domain.tld. soa ... domain.tld. ns ... domain.tld. cname otherdomain.tld. this node has a CNAME and "other data", so it's illegal, no matter what you want to do, or what makes sense to you, or what is convenient for you.
