Perhaps we just need to believe that what MS is doing is in fact an

use" instead of just "NOT RECOMMENDED".  Then if someone checks PRA
against an SPF version 1 record in a production environment, it's very
clear where the fault lies, but no one can complain that we're
preventing their "experiment".

Without wanting to sound clever, _they_ are preventing their experiment.  
If I say "I want to do an experiment where all participants may assume red 
traffic lights to be yellow ones, and yellow ones to be green ones, oh, 
and every communal government that doesn't like this should mount warning 
signs to their lights", I shouldn't be surprised if a lot of people see to 
it that my experiment never takes off.
