To add a dissenting voice.

I've worked with small businesses and even small technical teams as a DNS consultant specifically.

DNS has only been a source of issues and confusion and not at all related to any requirements, just a form of checkbox implementation.

I do understand it's one of those technologies that are developed due to legitimate requirements, but it flows downstream and people just adopt it without really understanding the simpler solutions or what exactly it's meant to do.

That said if I had ever gotten a bigger client like a TLD registrar or a downstream registrar, then sure I would have had to work with it, but I've only ever had to learn how to uninstall it actually.
