The crucial difference is that CAA/DMARC are consensual: the publisher and
the checker both want to use the protocol to stop baddies doing bad
things. But your situation is more adversarial: you (the checker) want to
find out if the publisher is good or bad. There's not much chance of
success trying to use a protocol designed for friendlies in situations of
distrust, let alone active combat!
