This is the best explanation I've read so far.  Problem is, it's
not a compelling rational.  Is this really the only reason for
assigning NS and A records, violating the RFC, and breaking thousands
of spam filters in the process?
What spam did you see that forged example.* in the sender envelope / rDNS?

example.* is well worth special-casing, I dare say, if you find spam being sent with it in the headers.
