Yup, and there's a couple of the blacklist operators that I have had the
displeasure of dealing with, their software blacklists your domain if their
test message is accepted by your MTA. I was using rulesets that accepted
some questionable emails but never delivered them if they failed several
post acceptance checks. they blacklisted that domain because of it.

That is true. Some? of the blacklists will blacklist any site that COULD
be used, based entirely on whether they have things like reverse DNS
configured properly.
How about an entire Community College being blacklisted (without ever
having been hijacked)? And the "Network Administrator" is apparently not
capable of fixing it!
