All the banks (!$%^) I talk to do not have any reason to implement it swiftly (they turn on p=none and then all progress stops). Frustrating that they are too lazy to implement a few DNS records.

Please no.  DMARC is great for 1:1 direct email  (from:me, to:you).
Anything other than p=none fails miserably once the scope is expanded.
 Let me give you examples of things that would fail miserably under
your suggestion above:

1)  This list

2)  The recent, heavily forwarded and reflected, Cisco PSIRT notices.

NANOG is not the place to debate this, nor is it the place to advocate
self inflicted harm.
