Apart from that, I am tired of implementing exceptions for each and
every big proprietary mail provider out there. If a company desires to
take part in federated e-mail communicaiton, I expect them to set up
there stuff the way others expect it. If there setup is too huge to
manage it without awkward tricks, like Google dynamically assigning
roles to servers and not even reliably using subnets, whatever, for
certain roles, then they are by definition not up to the task of
operating it, be it for conceptional or personnel limitations. If we go
ahead and teach all _other_ mail systems to fit their needs, we
effectively do the work their customers pay them for.

I am close to deciding not to opt-in to that and simply not accepting
their mail if I can't using standard configurations.
