ADSP already dictates use of the From: domain.

The the nature ADSP's use of the From: domain is fundamentally different from ATPS' use.

Broadly, we can distinguish:

   Name extraction:    determining what name is being claimed

   Name verification:  determining that the use of the name is authorized

   Name assessment:    determining whether the name is associated with good
                       or bad actor.

ADSP adds a constraint on name verification; it mandates that at least one DKIM d= name match the domain in the From: field.

ATPS essentially modifies name extraction, by making it a two-step process. The first step is the usual one, with d=, for use with validation, but the second one takes the domain in the From: field and makes it the output string to the assessment process.

to ADSP.  It doesn't change anything that DKIM reports, only the rule
for deciding whether ADSP finds an Author Domain Signature.

While yes it has text pertaining to ADSP, I will claim that with ADSP, too, the modification is in name extraction rather than validation or assessment.
