Note that this is Unbound setting is not about accepting sloppiness or
being extra tolerant. What people here refer to as the "10% rule" is
about mitigating the problem of clock skew and timezones. Also, these
values are capped: the minimum skew is 1 hour. That value has been
chosen to prevent problems caused by daylight savings differences. The
maximum is 24 hours. These settings can be adjusted in unbound.conf with
'val-sig-skew-min:' and 'val-sig-skew-max:'.
