eu.org is located in the private domain section of Mozillas public suffix list. 
Apparently Google does not treat those private domains as public suffixes (at 
least not all of them) or uses a different public suffix list. The DMARC 
specification does not mandate that you have to use Mozillas PSL and pick up 
every self-appointed entry from there.
Andy Smith is likely using a domain below an ICANN registered TLD and is 
therefore unaffected by this issue anyway.
