Thanks for the review.

The sentence "a good value is 10" seems to me indicating that it is
just a possible value. The important thing is to have a limit. Do we
think it should be rewritten with RFC 2119 words? MUST have a limit
and the RECOMMENDED value is 10?

Actually, there are *two* independant requests. One for
foo.bar.baz.example and one afterwards ("Here are more detailed
examples") for a.b.example.org. In the first one, ns1.nic.example is
indeed used.

Should we use the same QNAME for both?

With QNAME minimisation, an authoritative name server MAY use exact
matching ("do I know foobar.example?") while without it, it MUST use
tree matching ("do I know thing.stuff.foobar.example or an ancestor of
it?") and tree matching is typically slower.
