I don't believe there is agreement about the your last sentence here.

Personally I think the authoritative server infrastructure would
handle this just fine - but I shudder to think about the increase in
DNS-based reflection/amplification DDoS attack traffic which would be
expected given a several order of magnitude increase in the number of
resolvers.
