I briefly review it and failed to talk about the payload scalability

Given the empirical data showing that PRA == 2821.MAIL FROM, atleast 80% of
the time, SID is a major overhead consideration.

That is certainly a valid criticism.  However, the goal of the
SPF_vs_Sender_ID article is to clear up confusion between the
two from a NPOV (so as not to offend those in a position to
fix the SPF reuse error).

There is a link from SPF_vs_Sender_ID to our criticism of Sender-ID on
old.openspf.org.  Would you like to volunteer to update the
critique for the new website?

However, I can see room for pointing out in "which is better" that
SPF works with all 2822 protocols, including Sender-ID, to make them
more efficient by rejecting the real junk early.
