One small concern I wanted to discuss here. I know few
registry/registrars which do not accept both (or all) name servers of
domain name on same subnet. They demand at least 1 DNS server should be
on different subnet for failover reasons (old thoughts).

How one can deal with such case in case of anycasting setup which using
one single subnet everywhere?

You still want name servers on more than one subnet in case the anycast
setup breaks.
