It's quite difficult to have multiple masters and DNSSEC and coherent
copies of the zone from all masters - i.e. more effort than just spinning
up parallel instances of BIND or Knot in automatic signing mode. The
downstream xfer clients will get horribly muddled if you don't spend the
effort to ensure the masters are generating the same zone data for the
same serial numbers.

Easier to have one primary master which can be replaced quickly.
