    No, the current stable release is 9.16. The "primary" and "secondary" keywords were added in 9.12.

    Then is the ISC ARM directory page https://kb.isc.org/docs/aa-01031
    outdated? The most recent version listed here is 9.14 - which is now EOL according to your own page at https://www.isc.org/bind/

    What am I missing, other than those two controversial words in the most
    recent ARM version you list?

    Brett,
    Thank you for pointing this out. We seem to have forgotten to update the ARMs in the Knowledgebase. I know why this is - we thought that we would be entirely migrated to the ReadTheDocs.io on-line docs by 9.16.0, but we hadn’t. In any case, I updated the main ‘about the BIND documentation’ article, and added another one with links to the 9.16 ARMs. They are always available on our ftp server in the directory with the BIND source (ex https://ftp.isc.org/isc/bind9/9.16.3/doc/).
