We need to work on the public perception of SPF being unreliable or

I've seen two things referenced wrt SPF being "unreliable":
1) mistakes by SPF publisher, buggy SPF client software, and/or
incorrect receiver forwarding configuration causes
incorrect results.
2) publisher can specify results of NEUTRAL or SOFTFAIL.
I forgot:
3) User expected SPF-classic to verify 2822 From, but it doesn't. We
can blame senderID for that misconception.
