Yes, of course. As defined in the document, the local root server has exactly the root server data in it, and acts like an authoritative server.

That is not the design in the draft. In the draft, the root server on the loopback can only serve one recursive server, namely the one on the same host.

Correct: "serving only local recursive server", not "serving many recursive server".
