I don't think nomultiline does what you think it does.  I suspect, from
reading the man file, it's about individual records that have multiline
outputs, not whole query answers that do.  e.g. If a single record, like
the "a165.g.akamai.net" data, had more information directly associated
with it.

But, whatever it actually means, you could tag the following onto the
end of your command line:  |head -n 1
