It is somewhat difficult to make correct use of the additional section.
For example, Exim tried to do it, but they had to remove the code
because it caused spurious mail delivery failures.  Nowadays, Exim just
sends explicit DNS queries for everything it needs, and no one has
complained about that.

Even if you manage that, there are other resolvers out there which do
not scrub the additional section (unlike BIND 9), so if you use that
data, you end up with a DNS poisoning vulnerability.
