As any sensible person would do.  Which other denial of (your own)
services would you advocate allowing to happen, as well?

You're making assumptions.

One, that clients should employ local junk mail filtering, as the only
possible alternative to greylisting.  The old "there's only two types of
music, country or western" argument.

And that for some strange reason, it's magically my fault that I cannot
make greylisting work properly on someone else's mail server.  You keep
ignoring the issue, that greylisting is a problem because of other
people's servers, more than your own.  We (the general public) send
through their ISP's server, and it's received by someone else's SMTP.

Pot, kettle, black.  You're the one promulgating an "opinion" (that
greylisting is brilliant), I'm the one bringing up a "fact" that it
causes problems.
