Both docs in this set should say something more about authenticity and integrity, particularly since DNSSEC cannot be used to establish the same. (The security considerations sections mention confidentiality. Authenticity and integrity are likely important for most use cases.) On the whole, I

sanity check, someone? i believe that in dnssec, an empty non-terminal has a proof that the name exists, and a proof that there are no RR's. thus, vastly different from the signaling for NXDOMAIN. Yes, it does. With NSEC3 it is an explicit proof. With NSEC you have to read between the line
