There's a lot of difference between "not blacklisted" and 
"whitelisted". Not using a spam-friendly registrar does not mean they 
will get a pass, just that they won't get points for haiving used a 
spam-friendly registrar.

Oh, I see what you mean.

Adding some score for spam-friendly (not necessarily 100% spammy) is
reasonable; using the registrar as a poison pill is not. Plus, what
legitimate domain owner would wish to knowingly register their domain
with a registrar that has a truly bad reputation? Plus, they can leave
that registrar rather easily.
