True, but old DNS uses UDP and thus the responses aren't "related" to a given query (a stateful firewall couldn't necessarily determine that an incoming DNS UDP reply was solicited or not).
I think related is fudged for UDP by noting destination and source IPs and port numbers and allowing inbound UDP packets that match those IP and port numbers through for some period of time (my memory is 5 minutes). This will work for most DNS.
