I've read the AS draft again and other than the text you just moved into it, I 
don't find it particularly useful for implementers of auth failure FBRs.  I 
think the minimal efficiency for document producers provided by having one 
draft 
to update is more than offset by increased complexity for implementers having 
to sorth through a lot of irrelevant advice.

Except that as written, 9.2 isn't giving advice for just SPF auth failure 
results.  It's now giving advice for all ARFs (as I understand it), so I don't 
think it can be pushed off into a document on how to due auth failure ARFs for 
SPF.
