I wonder for which reason do you think this. Of course, any forwarding adds a additional hop and therefore additional delay and an additional possible point of failure. But this is true for any network-connection. So, what do you think are the DNS-specific downsides of forwarding? The only thing that comes to mind if I think about downsides of forwarding is that, if something goes wrong, the client only gets a generic SERVFAIL as errormessage instead of a specific explanation what exactly went wrong. Do you see other downsides to forwarding?
