purpose of the RIR(for example RIPE) "domain:" object

[Martin T]

Ok, but still RIPE domain object is just an informational record? I
mean DNS servers don't use RIPE domain object data, do they? So
basically nothing happens if I don't create(or update) domain object
in RIPE database when I delegate a zone file..
