I also think the draft should be more explicit on what data is actually meant in those ranks (i.e. referral responses with "B: Data from the authority section of a non-authoritative answer, Additional information from non-authoritative answers." etc.) and I also agree that we should remove the ranks which are currently meaningless and would not occur in practice (like the BB ranks in the list). I furthermore agree with your recommendation for DNS software to discard all data which is not in the list.
Probably related - I'd be quite interested in info and/or guidance about how exactly recursive resolvers process and/or trust the value of the AA bit sent by authoritative servers.
Is that bit "informational only", or does it in fact still play a role in recursive resolvers' logic?
