That's a silly, synthetic, and non-representative test. It encourages
cohosting all your NS at all your sites to game the performance numbers,
hurting availability.
I'd expect to see a decent amount of latency variance across the NS in a
given delegation because I want them to get anycasted to different
transit/physical locations, and I would also expect that not to translate
into notable user-perceived latency due to resolver's server selection
logic.
