Because the large mail vendors have already spoken, and they like the way that SPF/DKIM/DMARC work. Spending more time talking about how we think they SHOULD work is wasted effort.

What's "the current DKIM method" and how is it restrictive?

The large mail vendors are participating in these discussions, or at least observing them, so if we have something to say to them that's different from "go back to the way it was before", I believe it'll get heard.
