If your DNS is not part of an infrastructure data management system, then that is a true statement. However, many larger sites integrate their DNS with their existing database systems so that there can be a single source of authentic data for the Entreprise.

Yet having the advantage that when your SQL- or other-based database fails, your nameservers don't.
