By that argument, there's no excuse for the big mailer providers for
bouncing List mail because of DMARC.  They could just reference the
List-ID field, and display something like this:

  <From> via mailing list <list-id header contents>

Great idea.  Because there is no possibility whatsoever that if mail
systems did that, bad guys would put in fake List-IDs to get their
phishes delivered.

Right and DMARC has put an end to email phishing, and this progress
is in serious jeopardy of being undone if a bad guy can send an email

        From: Bobby Phisher <rf@notbank.example> on behalf of Joe Banker 
<joe@bank.example>

and is at no risk with:

        From: Joe Banker <joe@bank.notbank.example>

Reminds me of "Yes minister", we've to do *something* about
phishing and DMARC is something...
