I disagree. pdns-recursor cleanly exits on the first HUP, and the
TERM/KILL will never be triggered.

If pdns-recursor doesn't immediately exit, something's fishy.

In other news, the systemd unit file for pdns-recursor doesn't do
anything fancy, and a stop would run the regular systemd exit
behavior (which means way faster timeouts even if the daemon hangs
or something).
