Without the necessary NS records in the parent, the zone was never
correctly delegated.  It worked, but only due to a fluke of being served
on the same server as its parent zone.

Implementing DNSSEC made you fix your zone.  This is not a bad thing.

There is no reason to "try again without DNSSEC" if you get a failure,
because that failure means it didn't work.  You may end up trying
different authoritative servers if you get a failure (to work around
poisoned or disrupted servers), but you don't ever fall back to
non-DNSSEC lookups on zones that should be secure.
