There was no alternative; we couldn't keep BIND in base. BIND 9 will
certainly have a EoL before the EoL of FreeBSD 10.x, and we can't use
BIND 10 because it requires importing Python to base.

Keep in mind that Unbound is not planned to be a permanent addition to
base either. It's merely a stop-gap until Capser is complete, which will
then provide the DNS services in base.
