A bit more interesting is the command that you used to sign the zone.
When signatures reach 3/4 lifetime, the associated record is
automatically re-signed.

Additionally, when new keys are made available signatures will created
based on the timing meta-data in the keys..

Overall, the defaults seem to be "good enough" for nearly everyone.
