If you use F5 as your load balancer; the GTM can act as primary/secondary/caching DNS and do other security features like DNS Firewalling/DNSSec etc.  Pretty sure you can do the same with Citrix NetScaler as well.
"It can also be argued that DNA is nothing more than a program designed to preserve itself. Life has become more complex in the overwhelming sea of information. And life, when organized into species, relies upon genes to be its memory system."

Hmm, we do use F5 Load Balancers in all environments (Prod, Dev, DMZ, online).  Do you know if doing this with GTM is licensed or not?

As long as you have GTM provisioned (so licensed) then you can use it; if you brought either their "better" or "best" license then you already have the GTM license even though you may not have provisioned it.
