3. Data Structure
...

   A DNS name is printed as a concatenation left to right of the
   individual labels on the path from the node to the root, each label
   trailing with an ASCII period '.' character.  Thus a complete printed
   DNS name ends with a period character.

Not exactly.  There is no period after the zero-length root zone.
The last period is actually between the tld and the root zone.
So 'there is a period between each zone' not 'after each zone'
even though it looks like a trailing dot.
