Funnily enough, this little obscurity came up elsewhere just last week.

I had the same question back in 2012:

https://lists.isc.org/pipermail/bind-users/2012-June/087843.html

https://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-andrews-dnsext-soa-discovery

The latter link explains the reason for this odd behaviour.

[ Last week we also discussed an odd bit of text in RFC 1035: "For
example, SOA records are always distributed with a zero TTL to
prohibit caching." But RFC 2181 said you must no longer do that. ]
