Some of us don't need or want the hits -- I'm not interested in selling
to the public right now, just maintaining my existing clients. As much
as I love the domain+hosting+etc business, it's not a business priority
right now or an area that I can afford to have the support costs grow.
I usually enter the domain into my system and create an empty zonefile
(Contains SOA and NS records, but nothing else) just to avoid the alem
delegation issue, but I'd rather not have any nameservers at all because
it means when the customer does decide to light up the domain, they have
to wait up to 72 hours for my NS to disappear from caches
(Remember, additions and changes are entered into the roots
semi-realtime, but already cached info needs 72 hours to drop out)
