I'd like to hear comments on this, even flames or pointers to threads
I've missed.
You missed the discussion (probably including posts from wayne) about how the simple format of SPF made it easier to deploy and the stats showing how many domains had deployed SPF vs. CID. (something like 30,000 vs. sixty). Also discussed: New RR support in deployed clients is poor and in servers is fair but not great. The former is easily fixed by having the client embedded in the MARID implementation. The latter is not easily fixed. A third problem is firewalls that block queries of the new RR becaue they don't recognize it. (Any known cases of firewalls that do this? Cisco PIXes don't; they just block (by configurable default) DNS packets larger than 512Bytes.)
