The SPF draft says "the SPF client MUST find the Zone Cut as defined
in [RFC2181] section 6" and RFC 2181 uses NS records, not SOA.

For a "normal" zone loaded by BIND, it does not matter. But you can
always find funny cases where it's different depending on wether you
use NS or SOA (study doesnotexist.ac).
