While I'm not against the clarification, the draft should mention
that rfc1034 already states:

    To fix this problem, a zone contains "glue" RRs which are not
    part of the authoritative data, and are address RRs for the servers.
    These RRs are only necessary if the name server's name is "below" the
    ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
    cut, and are only used as part of a referral response.
                 ^^^^^^^^^

which means the glue RRs are necessary for a referral response.
Though not very obvious, it logically means that they MUST be
included as part of a referral response, because it is the only
reason to make them necessary.
