There is this nugget here:

Perhaps this is why Unbound fails validation.

We should discuss this in the BIND context. Immediately upon reading
this, I thought this probably means "SHOULD ignore authentication chains
through SHA-1 if an authentication chain through SHA-256 exists." But
that invites downgrade attacks.
