Unbound prefers the child side name servers, but if they do not answer, tries to use the parent-side name servers.

A little more detail, Unbound would on first resolve use the parent side servers. On the second resolve, Unbound has the child-side name server data, and lookups ns1.example.com and gets an answer from the IANA example servers. Then tries to send packets to them, getting failure answers. Then tries the parent-side names servers as fall back.

And then there is harden-referral-path=yes which does insist on checking
the NS RRset at the child at least for DNSSEC signed zones. It's been
enabled for as long as I can remember in fedora/centos/rhel.
