The draft says 'Servers that do not tolerate unknown values will fail to
interoperate'. But for extra queries that is not true. Certainly not if
the extra query comes after the real query. It may not even be clear
in what context the extra query should execute. After all the real query
has finished already.

Going back a long time when bind would report 'lame delegations'. By and
large nobody knew what do with that. So 'These failures could be logged and
be used to identify broken implementations'. It is not at all clear
if something positive will happen if production servers start logging issues
with remote servers.

That is fine. But where do those get published?

It seems that a lot of this draft is more for a measuring tool like the
above.
