Identities are infinite and free.
Sadly, this is somewhat true, but SPF and DKIM work on domain names, and they typically aren't free. Assuming a domain name seller acquires payment for the domain, there's is a financial trace possible when necessary. And if the payment is fraudulent, the domain name seller has an interest to fix that loophole. While subdomains can be done for free, they are tied to a domain that again has a reputation to protect or is traceable if used repeatedly.

To be sure, it ain't easy, and getting worldwide adoption of prepaid postage is likely harder.
