Complete replacement of delegation NS RRsets happens fairly frequently. I
don't pay attention to the glue, tho, so I don't know how often these are
just renames as opposed to server platform changes.

One memorable example was .unicom back in June

The .mm delegation change on 7 Oct was a complete change of names and
addresses.

On 2 Nov, .in and their many IDN TLDs had a rename rather than a change of
addresses.
