Well yes. Because you either authenticate or fail to authenticate and
refuse to deliver. We cannot decide whether or not to deliver in shades
of grey.

So we have:

- unsigned domain -> deliver without authentication, allow any TLS credential
- signed domain with unsined mx target -> deliver without authentication, allow 
any TLS credential
- signed domain with signed mx target -> deliver only if authentication 
succeeded.

You seem to want something like:

- unsigned domain with signed mx target -> deliver if authentication
  succeeds - despite possible spoofed MX record

What is the result of the last one? "Verified TLS to potential rogue server" ? 
I don't think we
would call that verified.
