This is handy info as we constantly get requests to "allow a domain," but it's much more complicated these days. It's nice to get validation from Microsoft that this is not the recommended path, and that it can get very granular if needed. We've found that many vendors request this out of old practice, but if they have good email security hygiene, it's not needed. Just like you mentioned, vendors can be compromised, and without those controls in place, we in IT will look like we're not doing our jobs if malicious messages from that vendor make it to inboxes.
