That's an example in which an A record in this zone has the standard DNS

The other A records have a specific meaning in which the data returned
indicates that indicates something about its reputation in a specific
context (what reputation etc. being context specific). One of these
things is not like the other. Using the same record type for both
creates a need to generate some other context that enables you to figure
out what was really meant.
I understand the argument that DNSBLs break the DNS data model. What I
don't see is any evidence that this causes interoperability problems.
