And I'm agreeing. But I'm also saying that this kind of thing would be
less of a problem if the 'def' whitelists were better organized.

I give them all a score of -0.001 and then score

USER_IN_DEF_WELCOMELIST || USER_IN_DEF_SPF_WL || USER_IN_DEF_DKIM_WL

The way it's currently setup you could get a total def whitelist
score of -7.5, -15 -22.5 or -30, which is insane if you want there to
be a useful distinction between def and full whitelisting. 

The worst part is that the commonest form, "def_whitelist_auth", is
scored separately for SPF and DKIM for a single whitelisting entry. So
even if you avoid overlap with def_whitelist_from_rcvd, you still have
this random N and 2N point scoring whatever you set N to.
