In fact, I can't think of any whitelist test that should pass if SPF fails.

If you operate on the theory that a SPF failure is always a sign of spam, you can make your SpamAssassin always trust SPF failures absolutely. I would not recommend that. Some people screw up their SPF records. Other people forward mail transparently, which reliably breaks SPF. SPF is broken *by design* as a spam control tool AND as a mail authentication tool. We knew this 20 years ago, but it remains a useful tool if you work with its limits rather than assuming that they do not exist.

spf domain owner asked for hardfails, so why not score spf_fail as 100 ? :)

on the other hans if spf domain owner asked for softfails it would not still be 100

but i still suggest to report to dnswl, if not dnswl none listed
