Well, my meaning is that these are islands. There is no root.

But it seems important to me to highlight, this type of DNS does not have

That's an implementation detail orthogonal to the semantics.
Given the sample records for
99.2.0.192.bad.example.com
an implementor could distribute their load by setting up authoritative
servers at any break, perhaps there is enough traffic requesting
records for *.192.bad.example.com to justify delegating that to its
own hardware.
So there's nothing stopping an implementor of a dns*l from using a
hierarchy instead of a big server, if that makes sense.
Or did you mean something else by "does not have any hierarchy?"
