DMARC still has some issues. From a few years ago: https://i.blackhat.com/USA-20/Thursday/us-20-Chen-You-Have-N...

> Unfortunately, neither SPF nor DKIM provides a complete solution for preventing email spoofing. SPF authenticates the HELO/MAIL FROM identifier and DKIM authenticates the d= field in DKIM-signature header: neither of them authenticates the From header displayed to the end-user, which means that even if an email passes SPF and DKIM validation, its From address can still be forged.

A lack of DMARC+ on an email domain is definitely a problem, but DMARC+ alone still doesn't solve the "is this the real sender" problem.
