Stop and consider. My lists are a lot lower traffic. But I was
getting dozens of bounce messages for *every* post by yahoo users. My
list doidn't have auto-unsubscribe. But I still had to wade thru all
those bounces to see if there were bounces due to things like people
posting from the wrong address or if people hads closed an account
without unsubscribing.

Trust me, boiubces are a majoir PITA for list maintainers. The DMARC
related ones are even worse.
