Well, while addressing that topic...

Let's maybe (again) try to align all noses in the same direction;
create an RFC defining a standard mechanism, like

80.80.80.80.in-addr.arpa. IN APL 1:198.51.100.37/32 2:203.0.113.0/26 3:2000::E7C:E7C/128
80.80.81.81.in-addr.arpa. IN APL 1:198.51.100.37/32 2:203.0.113.0/26 3:2000::E7C:E7C/128

to identify OoB IP's of large public resolving platforms - which show different metrics that a regular resolver.

That, i.c.w. something that identifies the OoB prefix or range being member of the above record.

With such handgrips authoriative operators could create a bit more modest exceptions in what their RRL rules tolerate.
Or simply just discover and understand what's happening.
