If the UDP query returns TC=1 DiG retries with TCP. I want to see the
UDP results and am unable to. Specifying +notcp makes no difference. The
correct option is +ignore:
# dig @127.0.0.1 'web_client\;*\;athena\;*.keys.redis.sophia.m3047' txt +notcp | tail
web_client\;*\;athena\;*.keys.redis.sophia.m3047. 30 IN TXT "web_client;194.55.186.216,404;athena;1670154435"
web_client\;*\;athena\;*.keys.redis.sophia.m3047. 30 IN TXT "web_client;43.134.92.151,400;athena;1670132664"
web_client\;*\;athena\;*.keys.redis.sophia.m3047. 30 IN TXT "web_client;35.162.155.28,200;athena;1670132664"
web_client\;*\;athena\;*.keys.redis.sophia.m3047. 30 IN TXT "web_client;159.89.118.246,200;athena;1670132664"

The "tell" is that on the footer SERVER line it reports the protocol.
Note that in the first case it's TCP, even though +notcp was specified.
(The MSG SIZE is also a clue.)
Searching the intertubes wasn't much help. When I tried to search the
list archives I got a Gateway Timeout. :-( Anyway, it's been a minor
personal annoyance for a while; hopefully this helps somebody else with
a problem they didn't know they had.
