Why's that? 

There are some tests that aren't done deep for good logical reasons. For
example dynamic-pool rDNS is a spam sign in the last-external
receivedheader, but is perfectly normal in a submission received header
or a webmail originating-ip header. 

RFC violations are not normal practice anywhere, so there's no
intrinsic reason not to test for them on deep headers. It's all about
results.

The only argument you have made against these rules is that they don't
work for you. They do work on the corpus that generates the rule scores,
so clearly the corpus does matter.
