You're arguing over nomenclature, which is pointless.

Alex, you're right then SPF advocates do indeed phrase it as "No
spoofing my name". But John is also right because what they _mean_ by
that is "no forwarding", since normal forwarding does involve, and
always has involved, the behaviour which SPF advocates now want to call
"spoofing".

The SPF advocates are suggesting that people do something else instead
of normal forwarding, but they haven't really got a coherent and
deployable answer yet as to _what_ else should be done.
