At some point there is a boundary between infrastructure the sender 
has control of and where he does not. That boundary is very clearly 
defined in my universe but even if it was ambiguous it would still 
exist.

The problem is that for different identities, this "boundary" 
is different.  In particular, the boundaries between the SPF 
identities (2821.MAILFROM and 2821.HELO) are different than 
SenderID (PRA).

The identities are completely irrelevant.

The only relevant boundary is between what the sender controls and what
they do not. All that any sender, forwarder or any other mail injector
can ever be expected to do is to define the boundaries of the systems
they control.

Once that boundary is defined the definition is fair game for any party
to use to interpret it to meet their operational needs.
