I meant default as in it's the one configured by default for a provider's 
users, e.g., by DHCP.

The ISPs I know of that have policy resolvers to rewrite NXDOMAIN 
configure them by default, but provide some way for users to opt out so 
they get the real result instead.  I don't particularly care what the 
wording is so long as it describes what actually happens rather than how 
we think the users ought to feel.
