I meant both. Initial (which you say doesn't matter; TIL) and edits after-the-fact. I learned something new today and I've been doing DNS crap for decades; I feel like a doofus.

Technically the initial propagation does depend somewhat on TTL. If you query the server and get the response that the record doesn't exist, that negative response gets cached too (based on the TTL of the SOA record). But it's pretty unusual for that to matter if you're standing up a new server.
