What toxic landscape gives rise to this unwanted denizen? If something
demands a CNAME at the apex, it's hardly a zone at all: how can we do NS
records?

Just CNAME it. There I said it: CNAME it in the parent zone, because it's
not a zone at all.

But that will never happen because rules exist against that sort of thing.
