Only a few percent of email (as seen at the planetary scale mailbox
providers) is not unique per recipient (besides unsubscribes, commercial
email (whish is the vast bulk of all email today) contains personalised
links, images etc for measuring engagement and delivery success.

>3) Any intermediary along the mail path is completely at liberty to 
>(re)sign a message already with DKIM.

Yes and many do ... as a result of which a high proportion of email has
two signatures and in some cases it can be dozens. This is expensive for
recipients who need to check all the signatures to assess which are
valid (and then they must reason about reputation in complex ways)
