 But, more importantly, we can't have a protocol where people can do "whatever they want" without running into these little issues.

 Sorry, but welcome to the other side of "embrace the chaos".

Personally, I favor tighter specs throughout. Discipline is the paradoxical path to freedom.

 Initially wanted to repost this as a makeshift bookmark, but this is actually really neat.

Kinda reminds me of reading the Matrix protocol and just about going wide whilst doing so... oh my god. x.x
