I work for DNSFilter

How can this postulate be verified?

And it is rather hard to see what you mean with this domain, it seems rather little maintained

Although it's obvious from search results that it is serving phishing training: https://urlscan.io/domain/micrsoftalerts.com

a year ago this site redirected to a (real? takedown training?) phishing page on *.000webhostapp.com: https://urlscan.io/result/982cc738-6262-46d0-80d0-b32ffbb44f2e/

So, there could be a possibility for training admins to change the destination and redirect to any website. While ignoring detections on such sites is a clear need, whitelisting this one is not a very good idea.
