For larger DNS operators SIG(0) is much safer because the contents of the
authorization database is all public keys.

For smaller entities, it's kind of a toss-up. TSIG wins because the tools to
create SIG(0) have poorer documentation.

I continue to believe that this is a HOWTO documentation thing, not an RFC
BCP.
