OK, ARC doesn't do that. This does not mean that ARC is broken, only that you appear to have different policy priorities than other people. As you know, DMARC has never obliged recipients to follow senders' policies so this is nothing new. My system does a lot of forwards of SPF-only p=reject mail to addresses that belong to individuals, e.g. [email protected] to the town clerk's gmail account. No matter how loudly someone might shout that I should never ever forward that mail, I will ignore them, because their policy is in this case silly. We have seen that senders often publish policies that have silly effects and I see no reason to pay them more attention than they deserve.
