I think you've read the spec without considering all the words (in
particular "single delivery").

-> is for (per the 4.40 spec, in 45.7)
When more than one address is included in a single delivery (for example,
two SMTP RCPT commands in one transaction) the second and subsequent
addresses are flagged with ³->² instead of ³=>².

That will seldom be the case for mail to domain1.com and domain2.com
(yes...sometimes they'll share the same MX, go out the to the same
smarthost, etc).
