This is correct for the immediate delegation.  However, it does not
help if there is yet another delegation.  This one would have
attacker-controlled TTLs in the parent (child) and child (grandchild).

Therefore, I fear that an approach which just picks up the data from
the child while keeping the TTL from the parent does not actually
address the issue of crafted TTLs.  Some sort of recursive,
tree-dependent approach appears to be required.
