Note that it is almost always the case that ANY answers from
non-authoritative servers are a subset of the records :-)
And it seems difficult for a cache to determine when to use this extended
error code. If the cache was populated by an A query (say) it can't know
if this is a subset of the owner's records or not; if it populated the
cache from an ANY query then the records can expire at different times, so
it would have to keep track of this to know if the extended error becomes
relevant.
