Indeed. Everything comes with tradeoffs. More intimate familiarity with the product and a uniformity of deployment strategy has made it more practical here to stick with BIND; an update is a simple matter of a tarball and running a script that manages the dirty work. However, the original point was that switching from BIND to Unbound or other options is silly, because you're just trading one codebase for another, and they all have bugs.
