Attackers can no longer fabricate the existence or non-existence of
unsigned delegations whose hashes fall between those of the signed ones.
Of course all answers under an unsigned delegation are still subject to
some tampering.
Most of the value of avoiding opt-out is obtained in "leaf" zones with
no delegations. A delegation-mostly zone (such as a TLD) benefits less,
but unless you're operating something as large as .COM, there's little
reason to bother with opt-out.
