We (ISP I work for) had complaints when the messages scored over 7 were
refused. I have even seen some messages that could be taken as false
positives scoring a 11.

However I take refusal with score over 10 as safe. Some people just have to
fix their submission agents (usually PHP scripts who don't care about proper
encoding and splitting lines)
