By much that same line of reasoning, tuhs.org shouldn't have any MX
records either because the MX RRtype was introduced as recently as in
1986 (Wikipedia puts it at RFCs 973 and 974 [1] but without wide use
until "in the early 1990s"). Let alone a web presence because HTTP and
HTML came along even later. :-)
