Hector, Sender-ID needs 822 headers to work.

Right,  so legitimate mail is going to be lost for no logical, technical
reason.

Is violation of RFC822 no technical reason? The mail is not valid if it
does not contain at least one originator and receiver field each.

RFC822:
    message     =  fields *( CRLF *text )       ; Everything after
                                                ;  first null line
                                                ;  is message body

    fields      =    dates                      ; Creation time,
                     source                     ;  author id & one
                   1*destination                ;  address required
                    *optional-field             ;  others optional
