an you explain what this line of argument has to do with DMARC? I'm

If it's that any TLD operator might at any time do something horrible,
even though they never have before, it seems to me that the only
reasonable option is to abandon the DNS.
Sorry you lost the thread. To review:
Alessandro expressed concern about a particular company's demonstrated
predilection for what was classed as abuse.
You attempted to dismiss his concern with an irrelevant point about the
particulars of the specific abuse he cited.
I pointed out that you'd missed the point that he cited as issue with
corporate culture.
You again attempted to dismiss the point by claiming it was a single
event, long ago.
I point out that there was a pattern of behavior and concern about them.
You are now claiming that all this is irrelevant to the current topic.
Except that Alessandro's original reference was in the service of
explaining why a mechanism DMARC relies on, for establishing
organization authority, should not necessarily rely on everyone's being
a good actor.
A point that is entirely relevant and would have been easier to focus
on, had you not chosen to distract from it.
