the better approach?

Sure, that's only not covered by the spec.  You could be in
trouble for a hypothetical version 1A, 11, 1.1, etc. with
v=spf1A, v=spf11, v=spf1.1, etc.  The example in chapter 4.5
is v=spf10.

example2.com    IN TXT "v=spf1-all"
example2.com    IN TXT "v=spf1 -all"
[...]
example2.com would result in no error.

That's a nice case for SPF test suites.   Bye, Frank
