I think we need something here.  I agree with your core point that 
Organizational Domain has to have a DMARC record and we should say that.  I 
would spend the words on more PSO description here.  Almost no one is a PSO 
and we shouldn't over emphasize it.

I need to take another turn on the words I've been working on based on other 
comments.  I'll include something along these lines in that update and then 
you can see what you think.
