I've assumed the none, quarantine, reject choices are meant to indicate 
just how certain the domain owner is that the mail is problematic.

Perhaps:

     none: not certain at all

     quarantine: I believe I've got control of all my sending, but am 
not 100% positive

     reject: I have control of all my sending; if it doesn't pass DMARC, 
it's use of the domain is bogus.
