With the benefit of hindsight, that's a great question. I'd have been happy with Informational.  Indeed, the IESG evaluation record shows several ADs brought that up, but none of them insisted, and thus it didn't get changed.

What I had always expected to happen was, among other things, that MUA's would use it for like a web-like padlock too. At that point you have a protocol consumer. It's sort of disappointing they by and large don't from what I've seen. Hence my question on another thread DMARC fail, with p=none. That seems wrong and would definitely send the wrong signal to the MUA on how to mark it up.
