I don't know but a short story.

One of my Internet connections is on an unreliable cable network.

A tcpdump returns roughly 60 computers directly [1] connected via the
cable modem, 50/50% Windows, Macs, as far I can tell from what they
broadcast.

Last week-end the network was down, in the couple of minutes I looked
at it I've seen a lot of <very interesting name>.com.local broadcasted
DNS requests...

Note;
1 IMO it's the point here, if you have only one computer zeroconf
should be down.
