It still gets the wrong answer for psd=n above psd=y.

Why?

See the example I posted last week.

(If the one beneath it has no DMARC record, is it still the org domain? I think 
it is.)

This seems to be inconsistent with the sentence that follows. Would the landscape change if .com suddenly publishes psd=y?

Currently with the PSL lookup, foo.com is an org domain whether or not it publishes a DMARC record, and mail.foo.com and sales.foo.com are in relaxed alignment. While I think it would be reasonable to say that an org domain has to publish a DMARC record if it's going to be used for relaxed alignment, that would be a change from the current rule.

Since there is no chance that .com .net .org or other large TLDs will ever publish a PSD record it makes little difference in practice, but if we agree the org domain needs a DMARC record, we should make clear that this is a deliberate change. It's a good idea since if foo.com has no DMARC record and .com has no PSD record, it won't work as an org domain anyway.
