I was going to answer *exactly* the same, but didn't, because I was
ashamed.

The reason that I am ashamed, is that I also use Postfix to a great
extent, and this is what most Postfix admins advise (and there are some
pretty powerful orgs out there using Postfix) - "do not use backup MXs,
unless you have full control over their configurations and can sync
their anti-spam measures to your primary MX. Backup MXs are basically
worthless, anyway", for the same reasons you give.

Best,
