I am focused on that point, because that is the current point of
discussion. That doesn’t detract from discussing other things, but with
respect to the original statement, the follow-up question, the subsequent
testing, and the follow-ups there, the focus was, and is, how the recipient
will behave.

Certainly, sender behavior can have relevance, but given that the specific
concern here is new software at the sender (“new” in some unavoidable
sense, as the concern captured this far is about the existence of the new
root in the sender) needing to communicate with a recipient on an older
version, the primary point of discussion is simply trying to be explicit
about what in particular is concerning about the recipient.
