Well they are supposed to show 'secure' examples. And B.1 has optout,
thus unbound is correct in setting the AD flag on NXDOMAIN with optout.
I think the example might thus be wrong and needs to have no optout.
If you think somehow the example should be for an 'insecure' NXDOMAIN.
Then it is still wrong because it needs to have the wildcard denial
removed (right? there can be no wildcard delegations).
