How does an SSP-like protocol do that?  Assertions like "I am a phish
target" don't do it.

Why not?

Because you (the generic you, whoever publishes SSP) aren't credible short of some reputation system which would make SSP irrelevant anyway.

It's fine to make statements about your own practices, like "I sign everything" or "All of my mail is composed in iambic pentameter" since that reflects things you have control over. Claiming you're a phish target is making assertions about the behaviors of zillions of other senders who you don't even know.

R's,
