You're right: I misinterpreted "no name-server" as "no such host" (aka
NXDOMAIN), but actually your explanation makes more sense.

That scenario still shouldn't have led to an NXDOMAIN. If none of the
delegated nameservers are responding, you'd get a timeout or SERVFAIL.
So I think there's still some investigation to be done. But using dig
instead of nslookup at least makes things clearer :-)
Where did he say he got NXDOMAIN? He said he got "no name-server", which
is not a dig error I've ever seen. Maybe he was abbreviating from "No
nameserver could be reached", which is what dig says when it times out
waiting for a reply.
