If the group of people that participated understood everyone's concerns well 
enough to represent them in the private phase of DMARC's development, why are

Testing the new thing before you turn off the old thing is such a garden 
variety, normal thing to do that I am completely mystified why anyone would 
ever design a protocol that precludes this.  My level of confusion is only 
increased by the fact that I still don't understand a single technical reason 
why this would be a good idea.
