Header canonicalization use:
canonicalization     count   domains passed
simple               653688  6786    591938
relaxed              3940377 56621   3640854

Although they only differ by 2% (90% simple vs 92% relaxed), such
percentages would be superb for tools like Spamassassin.  I'd expect
at least 99% from a cryptographic tool.

This tells me that the benefit from relaxed is at most pretty small.

OTOH, comparing the "count" fields of those two lines, 86% relaxed vs
14% simple, says that such kind of benefit is really really wanted.
