Sorry, I still do not understand. The EDNS0 option does not indicate
if the set is a subset or not. Or do you assume that, if the response
indicates that the responder executes this protocol, an answer is
always a subset (even if it's not)?

You can have keys which are not used for signing (such as in the root
today).
