You're right, the sender tweak only makes sense if the sender result is preferred. Otherwise a sender result can only make it less likely that a message is delivered, and that wouldn't be very useful. As always, a successful result doesn't mean not spam, it just means it didn't fail DMARC. I expect some non-normative advice would be helpful, pointing out that this is useful for third party senders, and recipient systems will have to come up with their own idea about which third parties are credible. It occurs to me it's likely to be the same list of third parties whose ARC seals are credible.
