I thought almost all cloud providers use anycast these days, elminating the 
need to serve different IPs per region.

Some of the load balancing is DNS-based, directing users to "nearby"
datacentre locations, that are currently up and not experiencing overload.  So 
names like "www.google.com" have return addresses with short TTLs and different 
content for different queries.

Static DNSSEC signing is a poor fit for this, so signing needs to be 
on-the-fly.  Cloudflare does this, so there a proof of concept, but it is a 
non-trivial implementation requiring some engineering effort, well beyond just 
spinning up BIND or Knot for a statically signed zone.
