The problem is that it's not possible to distinguish based solely on
self-published data the domain that's done all that work, and actually
understands the implications from the domain that's just published
an ADSP record because they'd heard it was a good idea, with no
understanding of the effect that would have on their email.

I don't think it's guaranteed that this is the case even if you go to the site 
and personally interview the people that work there.  I agree it increases your 
chances, but it's not a bulletproof solution either.  And over time, any such 
guarantee you do manage to eke out could easily (and perhaps is likely to) 
erode.

If the intent is to find something that works all the time, we should give up 
now.

If we're okay with approximations, I'm not sure self-publication should be so 
easily disqualified.
