Well, it will break for senders who's mail domain sets reject on SPF and
who's recipient domain actually rejects those emails instead of just
marking them as less valid.

Yeah, if your work email rejects such messages then indeed it will not
work in that case. 

Now, we could look at setting up some kind of rewriting thing that takes
the emails, rewrites them to come from some fedoraproject address and
set reply-to to the real sender. This would be a net new block of work
someone would have to implement, test, deploy and maintain it.

Or we could just look at sunsetting these aliases as modern email
continues to make it less tenable.
