Do you mean that it is out of scope wrt DMARC? I can understand that 
since it's an experiment. It would probably be best documented in the 
context of ARC itself and dealt with if it ever becomes standards track. 
In the mean time, reject should mean reject.

As it turns out, rfc 7489 does seem to document the issue though.
