You just stated the case as to why this discussion should be ruled out of scope.  " DMARC != Auth-res." and " DMARC in auth-res seems to be an orphan"

This is the IETF DMARC working group, not the AUTH-RES working group. You gave the example of someone writing a crappy Thunderbird extension as a reason for the working group to change its focus. Perhaps getting the extension author to fix their extension might be a more fruitful effort.


Let me put this another way:

"The verifying DMARC SHOULD encode its results into an Authentication-Results header [RFC 8601] for downstream MTA's, MDA's, and MUA in the same administrative domain, and those downstream entities SHOULD use the Authentication-Results so as to not put undue burden on the DNS infrastructure".

Anything that would cause them to have to violate that SHOULD is a problem that needs to be resolved.

Mike, getting tired of the circularity going on here
