Like it proves you have the ability to receive mail at the domain you're sending from? I feel like SPF/DKIM already does this


SPF doesn't prove that... I can send through SendGrid with an SPF record, doesn't mean I've got a server configured to receive mail... for that matter, it actually makes it so you HAVE to be responsible for the mail system and cannot outsource sending separately from receiving. Again, shifting the burden enough to where other measures of dealing with bad actors are more effective.
