There are so many issues with this DKIM-BASE + LOCAL
POLICY UNKNOWN that I find it hard to see how it justifies
the risk of signing.

What issues and risks do you refer to with respect to signing?

- Inconsistent results.
- Fake it to you make it.
- 3rd party signatures
- Bad Actors remain in legacy operations HOPING for unknowns.
- Good Actors remain in legacy operations FEARING the unknowns.
- Receivers requiring to support multiple "batteries."

and so on and so on.

How does policy ameliorate these issues and risks with signing?
