Do you think it is better to remove it from named.root?
Certainly not, your resolver removes it automatically from the list of
authoritative servers for the zone.

Also, named will add it right back to the in-memory cache (the one that matters) since it will reach out to one of the hints servers to find the up to date list of root servers.

The hints file is just a hint of how to find the roots, not an absolute list of root servers.

In any case, this was only(!) a 9.5 hour outage (2016-04-14 03:00-12:30 UTC).
Any kind of local manual configuration change would have been an inappropriate
response.

I think the only explanation we have seen so far is

which is fairly tight-lipped!
