Please clarify what the "reverse-zone" is that you're talking about.  Is 
it "246.2.186.in-addr.arpa." or "17.246.2.186.in-addr.arpa."? 
Delegating the former will likely have undesired ramifications. 
Delegating the latter (and it's associated IPs) is what I prefer to do.

I agree that there's not a /need/ for a zone transfer from the client to 
the ISP.  However Matus indicated that he /wanted/ the zone transfer.

Agreed.

But I will still ask the ISP to delegate the IPs to me as that's what I 
prefer.
