Zone transfers are super interesting topic. Thanks for mentioning that.
It's basically the way how to get all DNS records a DNS server has. Interestingly in some countries this is illegal and in some this is considered best practice.
Generally, enabled zone transfers is considered as misconfiguration and should be disabled.
We did research on that few months back and found out that 8% of all global name servers have it enabled.[0]
