Such testing is not mission creep.  The test is simply based upon SMTP
being the focus of ADSP assertions.

But SMTP IS NOT, and CANNOT BE the focus of ADSP assertions, simply  
because a message may be gatewayed in and out of SMTP umpteen times during  
its journey from original sender to ultimate recipient.

The true "focus of ADSP assertions" is "all those protocols which rely  
upon DSN as a part off their addressing mechanisms".
