That is merely because of using DKIM! Everyone can create a 'history of not sending spam', including spammers.
With your solution someone can rent a subnet, warm up a bunch of domains, but then blast spam from the entire subnet without immidiately affecting the entire set of spam domains.
What you're proposing wouldn't allow trusting even signed mail from an already suspicious subnet. Be the domain with or without reputation, so are the spammers'.
> Not blocking the domain does not increase the amount of spam that gets through because the domain is not sending spam.
They don't know that before they deliver your mail to inboxes and someone does or doesn't mark it as spam.
