that part is not true
https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc1537 says:
Note that all domains that contain hosts should have a "localhost" A
record in them
simply because /etc/hosts is not considered in case of a DNS lookup at
all and a unqualified query for "localhost" with "search thelounge.net"
in /etc/resolv.conf would be expanded to "localhost.thelounge.net." and
so correctly answered at the first try - our dns backend adds them to
every single zone-file because of rfc1537 for years
localhost.thelounge.net. 86400 IN A 127.0.0.1
