Option to block/not forward all AAAA queries

How do you know the effect on clients of blocking their AAAA queries? Will they go into a query frenzy looking for a reply, adding more DNS traffic to the network?

The optimistic view is they stop querying. It's the same as now blocking an A record for a specific. domain. Some clients will desperately try to resolve, but most don't.

Blocking all AAAA queries for almost 24h now (since morning 07.07.2020).

I neither observe clients going crazy nor clients stopping queries AAAA records. They are just blocked, the amount of queries didn't change.

sqlite3  /etc/pihole/pihole-FTL.db -separator "," "Select count(domain), strftime('%Y-%m-%d %H',timestamp, 'unixepoch') from queries where type=2 group by strftime('%Y-%m-%d %H',timestamp, 'unixepoch')"
