This is not for the spec to say. It's receiver policy.
True. But if receiver's policy is to do what SPF suggests, and
if SPF returns something that SHOULD or MUST result in a 5xx error,
then this decision has impact.
As for a practical solution to this user's problem, he
could manually include the semantics of the GoDaddy record in his own
record.
... with a warning that changes on godaddy's side might interrupt
mail from the user's side. Include is there to avoid that problem.
