NSes authoritative for a domain delegating that whole domain to some other
NSes is "delegation"?
Yes. DNS works by delegation from parent zones to child zones.
It is easy to do, but there is no need to unless you want to play ping-pong
with responsibilities when somebody files a claim statement against your
org...
There are lots of legitimate reasons to delegate zones, for example,
migration to a new nameserver. I suggest you ask someone who runs
major nameservers. I have.
