Is forwarding mail something your users never do? Or do you think the sender should be able to specify that the mail can't be forwarded?
With the exception of a pure -all record, policy enforcement based purely on spf is a poor choice. Maybe, depending on your users, it won't raise the fp rate that much. OTOH, if you just reject without letting in a fraction, how do you even know what your fp rate is? Waiting for feedback from your users that they're missing messages they may not even know they should have gotten is a poor way to measure effectiveness.
