Hmm. I thought the complaint was people outside of your organization would see "your" root name server and if that name server was having issues, they'd have no way of identifying who "you" were to call to get it fixed.

My impression of the discussion was that the anycast announcement of the same (new) prefix would not be coming from a single origin AS. This is a different model than the one that has been "mastered".

I thought the discussion has coalesced into the model in which the AA bit is not set.  It is better to think of it as cache preloading/refreshing.  I'm told it is also what a number of large scale resolver operators already do.
