The draft proposes ways to precisely identify NXDOMAIN in this system (which involves the ability to distinguish them from ENTs).

Amusingly, Amazon's DNSSEC implementation (which is Compact DoE) did in fact address that problem because there are no NXDOMAINs returned ever! :) So, another way you could solve that problem is by signing your Route53 zones!
