When enabled, AAAA queries short-circuit to NODATA (NOERROR + empty answer) so Happy Eyeballs clients don't stall waiting on a v6 address they can't use. Also strips `ipv6hint` SvcParam from HTTPS/SVCB answers (RFC 9460) so Chrome ≥103, Firefox, and Safari don't bypass the AAAA filter via the HTTPS record path. Local data is preserved: overrides, zones, the .numa proxy, and the blocklist sinkhole keep whatever v6 addresses they configure — the filter only kicks in on the cache/forward/recursive path. NODATA is correct per RFC 2308 here; NXDOMAIN would incorrectly imply the name doesn't exist for A queries either. Off by default. Opt in via `filter_aaaa = true` under `[server]`.
