But again, since you have no SOA to return, you have no record to attach
a TTL to, so retries, retries, retries.

Not gonna argue that the best fix is at the registrar. As an owner of a
nameserver, I really should have the right to say "no, you can't point
that to me."

But there's other reasons for REFUSED as well (security, ddos filtering,
etc) and I should have a means to add to the reply, "don't ask again for
X seconds"
