Can we agree to:
"servers running SA should use a local non forwarding resolver".
That should rule out dnsmasq.

Huh, why are people getting hung up on this?
The distinction is based on who the DNS server will consult to provide
a response to a question.
An authoritative server consults its local authoritative zone
database. It may or may not be willing to consult someone else for
questions not in its data

Right, but the question here is why isn't a forwarding server also a

It may or may not be, see "forward first". I DNS server may do both.

Right, but the question here is why isn't a forwarding server also a
recursive server? Why is the use of iteration the defining feature of
a recursive server and not the support for recursion.

A forwarding name server simply forwards (proxies) the query to an upstream
recursive server.
