I don't see why? The gtld servers will have an NS entry, and will answer
every query to them with an NS record (if the domain exists), or an A
record (if it doesn't). If there is a domain with just an MX, veryslime
won't be using their wildcard entry, they'll be giving you an NS answer.

So your MX will work, but your A record will give NXDOMAIN as expected.

Or am I missing some part of what you're saying?
