I suggest that this is at least in part a contradiction.  Consider: If the
arrangement is entirely private, what's the need for standardization?

It was, procedurally, very early in its development:
https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-ietf-dmarc-failure-reporting/history/

RFC Editor work is the last step.  It still needed to go through Working
Group Last Call, AD Evaluation, IETF Last Call, and IESG Evaluation, before
the RFC Editor got it.

have been some good arguments made that it's not worth the effort.  I don't
know where consensus falls on that question, and it's not my call to make.
