Since you brought it up... ;-)
I would say there is no single "primary benefit" to DKIM. I would say there
are "many benefits" to DKIM. And, to be explicit about it, I believe applying
DKIM for the purpose of "consumer protection" is at least as valid a benefit of
DKIM as applying it for "improved deliverability".
