[ Bcc'd to affected domain and nameserver domain contact ]

I had not seen the below failure mode before till now.

The form of the NSEC record suggests that the NSEC response is generated on
the fly, and yet its bitmap asserts the existence of the very record for
which a NODATA response was received.  Anyone seen anything similar?
What nameserver implementation is responsible for this?

P.S. The domain's NS RRset is also a bit odd:

$ dig +noall +ans +nocl +nottl -t ns sportvereine.online @ns1.falsum.net.
sportvereine.online.    NS      ns1.falsum.net.
sportvereine.online.    NS      ns2.falsum.net.

$ dig +noall +ans +nocl +nottl -t ns sportvereine.online @ns2.falsum.net.
sportvereine.online.    NS      ns1.falsum.net.
