We've identified one very widely used application that interprets SPF
records based upon how they're used by spammers rather than by how the
specification says they should be interpreted. In this case, SA is
entirely reasonable in its behaviour -- SPF makes the classic incorrect
assumption that spammers won't abuse the system.
