So a domain name would be in-bailiwick with regards to a given zone if it is part of that zone or any of its child zones? > > - In-domain > > - Sibling domain > > I tend to think it would be better to drop these two terms.

"Sibling domain" seems to also include the case where the name server is part of the parent zone which is un-intuitive but also probably rare enough to not warrant a separate term. One option would be to only define "in-domain" as a special case of "in-bailiwick" that needs special treatment?
