I'm fairly sure this only controls what packets are allowed to be
forwarded inside SA encapsulation, not whether or not SA messages are
sent at all.

You're right that discovery protocols mesh poorly with sparse mode
(particularly if they try to do expanding-ring searches). You effectively
need to have a PIM domain per smallest administrative area.
