I do not believe that 4.7 says that

>  - MUST check SPF and store preserved result (5.3.3)

it does not say that, it says it has to be preserved for future use,
there is no requirement to store it

>  - MUST check DKIM and store preserved result (5.3.3)

ditto

you have missed out a conditionality.. there is no requirement in the
document to create aggregate feedback results.

there is a SHOULD NOT in this section

>  Requirements for Domain owners:

these are NOT requirements for Domain owners ... we're not going to say
that they MUST send mail !

>    configure SPF for DMARC) (5.1.1)

You have that backwards (or at least you have failed to express the
conditionality), it's IF you want to have validators consider whether
there is a valid SPF pass for DMARC THEN you MUST ...

5.1.1 does not say that you need to publish any SPF at all

>  - MUST send mail that has DKIM signatures that produce a
>    DKIM-Authenticated identifier (to configure DKIM for DMARC)
>    (5.1.2)

and that is backwards as well

>The section 5.3.3 is not very clear that it requiers both SPF and
>DKIM,

I don't think that it has any such requirement -- and that is a good
thing. Requiring SPF, rather than tolerating it, would not make this a
useful document.

>It seems to bit useless to say that to use xxx you MUST do
>xxx :-)

that I do agree with
