On LEDE, it seems that there is always an hardcoded DNS fallback to 8.8.8.8. I see it in my logs, even if none of my configuration files mentions it.

Wow, that's unfortunate. Are you sure no clients on your network aren't configured to use Google dns servers?

Yes. The message is in the system logs of the router.
