How about "most of ip6.int is horribly broken"?  Just try to resolve
anything in 2.ip6.int with +trace for a good laugh.  All delegations
for 2.ip6.int are lame.  Actually, I don't think this zone cut was
there last time I checked and total brokenness started a little bit
farther down the tree.  Just when you think that it can't possibly get
any worse, it suddenly does...

As long as the operators of the high-level zones in ip6.int have no
intention to providing even the most modest of services (and this is
most certainly not going to change for the better), this discussion is
a waste of time, IMHO.  Get rid of ip6.int, please!  The sooner the
better.
