If then only bad actors we were concerned about were phishers then I'd agree. When we include spammers in the set of bad actors then the situation becomes less clear. Making it slightly more difficult for current bad actors to spam might well make spam considerably more attractive for a much larger group of bad actors who don't mind authenticating their spam.

I'm sorry, but I do not see how this follows at all. Spammers are
completely at liberty to identify themselves today. They don't
have to forge their addresses, so why don't they join the fun
today?
