The way you solve the problem described above is to get control of your
mail flows. I've worked with various "big CRM" vendors and they will gladly
accept a delegated subdomain (they control DNS and therefore SPF and DKIM
signing as well as publishing DMARC. There are other approaches as well.
Your post illustrates one of the problems with the discussion on this list.
People are conflating internal organizational issues with requirements for
interoperability. You could always publish 0.0.0.0 -all for your SPF record
and solve all your DMARC assertion issues very easily.
