I have difficulties thinking of an existent "reputation service" at
all :-)  Indeed, much of the confusion on this term may stem from the
fact that no impeccably designed reputation services exist yet.

By example, are DNSBLs reputation services?
An important aspect of mitigation services is being missed. This would be the IDENTIFIER being assessed, and whether it directly associates with an administrator of a service being rated for stewardship. After all, momentary abuse events are often forgiven when the administrator can be observed responding. Only administrators are able to impact the level of abuse seen on the Internet. Without administrator's crucial efforts, mitigation services would also fail, in addition to the services they defend.
