So it's fine if the delegation is secure (which is I presume what you mean by signed) but lame? The document actually specifies quite clearly that the delegation "MUST NOT include a DS record" which seems to be different from what you are saying. It also specifies that the delegation "MUST point to one or more black hole servers", which is pretty vague language following a MUST. I appreciate that the intention of homenet may well have been clear, but the text in section 7 is definitely not clear. I think actually it would have been reasonable for IANA to send it back as ambiguous before it got to the RFC Editor queue.
