well, and how becomes SPF part of the game in case of a throw-away
domain as long as "score SPF_NONE 0" - why in the world should a
spammer add a TXT record to a throw-away domain?

Ummm.... are you really that unclear on the concept?  I'll explain it
carefully:

Spammers know that (some) filters filter less aggressively than normal
on an SPF "pass".  So they register a throwaway domain and use that
in the envelope sender.  They publish a TXT record for that domain to
ensure they get an SPF pass.

There.  That wasn't so hard, was it?

and how does that care a SA setup?

SA setup will detect such domains and will score mail positively.
Is there something other to explain?

i don't really and everybody who pretends the opposite should be quiet in the future when it comes to highly false positive prone rules with scores of 1.5 or even higher
