Is it correct for ISPs to ban their users from using an authenticated
SMPT server outside of their network?

Absolutely, YES!

OK, but authenticated SMTP is still a part of what makes SPF possible.
As the FAQ says it:

  If you are the customer of an ISP that publishes SPF records, your
  ISP should provide you with an SMTP server that you can authenticate
  to, using either POP-before-SMTP or SASL AUTH. Or you can ask them
  to exclude you from SPF using the a user-specific "exists"
  mechanism.

This is what you want to block.

I _must_ be able to send e-mail with my company address when at home,
without having to use VPN. I can hardly imagine that I am alone.
