   "Existing deployment of DMARC has demonstrated utility at internet
    scale"

I would propose to adjust this statement to better match reality.

   "Existing deployment of DMARC has demonstrated moderate success
   for some providers and some parts of the internet, and at the
   same time interferes fatally with mailing list usage of
   DMARC-affected EMail user accounts and mail forwarding.

   But the by far most serious problem is that processing of EMail
   according to DMARC by a telecommunicatios service provider
   is a real and serious criminal offense in countries with strong
   protections of fundamental human rights, such as many member
   countries of the European Union, and this precludes that
   DMARC could ever scale to the entire internet.
