Agreed.

I'm not considering rolling back to old zone data, but considering changing the algorithm used to generate the serial number for new zone data. The new algorithm would result in the new data being published with serial numbers which would be ignored as being "older" if they were generated with the old algorithm. But I feel like we've wandered off the path.

My question is seeking clarification of the behavior of "rndc retransfer" - does this command perform the transfer, regardless of what serial number it has or finds?

Well, the serial number arithmetics is there for a reason - you usually don’t want to rollback to previous version of the zone - you can have multiple primaries with different serial numbers.
