Agreed.  However, even if it were written in the delegation record at
IANA, it would still have to have been initiated by the PSO.  So the
requirement is a sort of validated/ agreed upon self-assertion.

few extra string comparisons are still quicker than one more DNS lookup.

In addition, the organization who publishes that list qualifies as an
authority for monitoring those self-assertions.  It can tell when a
PSO first published its policy, and hence which registrants could have
operated their 2nd or 3rd level domain without being aware of that.
If it's important to preserve mail site operators' rights, that is.
