Only one domain failing to resolve, unbound pi-hole

Kind of pulling my hair out with this one.. The domain twitterdatadash.com will
not resolve with unbound recursively. I get SERVFAIL.

root.hints is up to date, local time on raspi is accurate. No other domains
are failing.

Both dig sigfail.verteiltesysteme.net @127.0.0.1 -p 5335 and dig
sigok.verteiltesysteme.net @127.0.0.1 -p 5335 are as expected.

Switching to an upstream DNS in Pi-hole will get the domain to successfully
resolve, as well as using a standard DNS forward-zone in
unbound.conf.d/pi-hole.conf:

    forward-zone:
    name: "."
    forward-addr: 8.8.8.8

However, if I use a DoT forward zone (because suspected possible? DNS
hijacking by ISP):

    tls-cert-bundle: /etc/ssl/certs/ca-certificates.crt
    forward-zone:
        name: "."
        forward-addr: 1.1.1.1 at 853#cloudflare-dns.com
        forward-addr: 1.0.0.1 at 853#cloudflare-dns.com
        forward-ssl-upstream: yes

Everything works exactly as expected, including https://1.1.1.1/help
 **except** twitterdatadash.com remains SERVFAIL.

Paste of dig outputs with various unbound configurations:

pi-hole.conf: https://pastebin.com/szLmcNFj

unbound logs greped with "twitterdatadash" :

'default' pihole.conf : https://pastebin.com/JmgUDSRv

with DoT: https://pastebin.com/k3UgdZD4

Accessing that domain is not crucial by any means, I am only concerned it
may be indicative of a bigger issue. It seems like there must be an issue
with my configuration somewhere, but every test I run appear to indicate no
issue. Is it possible the issue is not my end? Anyone have any ideas?
