Benefits of narrow mode:
- order name field does not matter (auth field still does)
- no brute forcing calculation of names in your zones

Downsides of narrow mode:
- you cannot have AXFR slaves, all slaves need to be NATIVE (which would work for you)

Benefits of inclusive mode:
- behaviour is closer to what other name servers do, easier to understand when you get a DNSSEC expert to debug something
- receives more testing than narrow
 
Kind regards,
