I think this particular situation boils down to this:
when a domain has correctly configured SPF, DKIM, DMARC and you count mail
claiming to be from that domain that originates in the great elsewhere in
the evaluation of that domain's reputation,
**YOU'RE DOING IT WRONG**
but this particular service provider (fsvo) appear to trust the system they
built but no longer fully understand more.
Just like some people I have encountered who trust LLM-du-jour more than
advice directly from the people who wrote the code they are failing to use
correctly.
All the best,
Peter
