Dave has well defined the difference between ADSP assertions and 
manually created lists of authentication acceptance criteria.  In the 
latter case, a domain is unable to react.  For manually generated lists, 
these represent a reaction to domains being flooded with phishing 
attempts.  As with the course of rivers changing over time, this often 
happens by getting wider.  If ADSP were easier to use without being 
disruptive, restrictive ADSP assertions would be more common.
