with the unspoken reason of: "Because the redirctor has full control
over the dns reponse path and can 'at will' replace any response with
one of it's choosing."

For instance replacing all instances of: "isc.org" with
"dns-assist.com" because of either mal-intent or misconfiguration on
the part of the redirector service owner.
