    55When the issue does arise -- even if very infrequently -- then isn't it better to handle it gracefully and in an intention revealing way that is also forgiving to clients, and that clients actually understand?

     7The purpose of the RFCs is to consider all such situations even with garbage input (see [1]), and to show what the correct response should be. IMO a mature service like Amazon ELB or a mature daemon like nginx should take something like Fuzz Testing in their stride and not give 'garbage out' as you suggest. Rather they should behave in a predictable manner according to the RFCs. Do you think otherwise?
