Not true, RFC4035 says all security aware resolvers SHOULD verify the signatures. It's far from pointless when actually implemented. Don't dismiss a whole protocol just because some historical implementations have been half assed.

The RFC uses "security-aware" to set them apart from ordinary resolvers, which are what every mainstream resolver uses.
