To be honest you advised me:

me: Hi,
     can this opennic.cache file be downloaded freely or do
         you need to register?  


You: As mentioned, I have not experimented with alternative DNS roots in
decades.

I could try to answer your question for you, but, seriously, if you are
going to start experimenting with advanced DNS topics, you really need
to be prepared to do basic data-discovery for yourself at _bare_
minimum. If you are not, I would advise staying away from such matters.

I am _not_ prepared to spoon-feed novices on such topics.

It seems to me that everybody you disagree with in your opinion has a
comprehension problem and/or is a troll.
So let's stop here and now.
