That's not non-FQDN. Non-FQDN would be "api" as short for
api.slack.com. slack.com is just the apex of a zone, but there's
nothing special about that for resolving; it's likely just a
difference in the records for it vs api, or something fishy the
recursive nameserver you're using is doing...

^^^^
This does not request AAAA. It (-A repeated redundantly 4 times)
request ANY, which is deprecated. So the output is not terribly
helpful in figuring out what's going on.
Can you provide tcpdump of port 53 traffic when curl makes the query,
and/or full strace of the curl execution? This would show what wrong
responses the nameserver is giving that's causing curl to fail.
