Those are two different statements, though.

The current DMARC protocol (
https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/html/rfc7489#section-3.2) specifies
acquiring a public suffix list as the first step in determining an
organizational domain.

Your example demonstrates an implementation of DMARC that may not be
following the published protocol, but that's different from saying DMARC
doesn't use the PSL.
