Maybe this document can give a decisive answer on the expansion of AXFR
as well?  In the RFC Editor Abbreviations List (
https://ftp.rfc-editor.org/rfc-style-guide/abbrev.expansion.txt ), this
is expanded as either     - Asynchronous Full Transfer (AXFR)  or
           - Authoritative Transfer             or
           - full zone transfer (AXFR) (RFC 6168)

>> Abstract:
>>   The DNS is defined in literally dozens of different RFCs.  The
>>   terminology used in by implementers and developers of DNS protocols,
>>   and by operators of DNS systems, has sometimes changed in the decades
>>   since the DNS was first defined.  This document gives current
>>   definitions for many of the terms used in the DNS in a single
>>   document.
