No, you are wrong, and if you did read my mail, you'd have seen the below

"There is a very good correlation between how much time the ISP is willing
to invest in it's relationship with other ISPs - that is, netiquette - and
the willingness to provide MATCHING !! A/PTR records for the dialups/adsl
pools in their IP range".
The ftpd on ftp.tau.ac.il is checking for matching A/PTR records. It logs
both the IP and the host.
As I mentioned above, for example, Netvision and Internet Zahav have
active abuse departments, which take care of abuse and actually are
responsive, and they have followed what is known as netiquette, and
defined matching A/PTR records for the dialups they own.
It is our experience, as being the first Internet connected body in
Israel, together with the other .ac.il bodies, that the policy we enforce
is the right thing to do.
