Umm it does?
  (FYI SORBS has not imposed any fines since Oct 12, 2010 and the policy
on the website has been updated to indicate there is no such thing as
the SORBS fine any more)

Indeed, I think that this an important point. Even though a DNSBL has ceased using the practise, it's still used as an argument as if it was still being used, and in many places still used as a reason to avoid/disparage the DNSBL.

Even after being mentioned numerous times _here_ this meme still continues to influence the discourse long after it become invalid - and remember, SORBS is in support of 2.2.5.

Further, why shouldn't a "Best Current Practises" document point out that a particular existing practise isn't "best"? Isn't that what BCPs are supposed to do if necessary?
