-1 It does not mean low value mail and I don't think you will find a sending mplementing dkim=discardable that would agree with you. In the case of the domain actually sending mail, what is being said is that the risk of phishing/badness/abuse is great enough that when in doubt, discard it if it fails to validate or does not have a signature. This is significantly different than "it means low value mail".
