I kind of understand your point of view, and the fuzzer complaining should not 
be an excuse to skip writing a commit message with some motivation for example, 
but I think you are a bit over the top.
There is already a discard_damaged_percentage and there is a point that maybe 
if a packet is obviously too broken to discard it with minimal overhead.
Those do not seem like utterly ridiculous ideas as your reply makes them out to 
me.
Nor is the idea of having some hardening against all too easy DoS attacks in 
some use-cases.
Also some value in just having the fuzzer run efficiently (it also discovers 
quite some real issues).
I agree it's hackish, I don't know the code enough to know it's correct, it 
needs to be properly documented (Michael, please, if you add such non-obvious, 
and especially heuristic checks, there needs to be some comment telling people 
the idea behind it and how to easily verify its correctness etc.).
With that in mind, can you maybe see why I do think that discussing such patch 
proposals does have merit?
Can we maybe come up with some compromise without being mad at each other?
Maybe some of these likely to be more controversial could be submitted as RFC 
instead of patch first?

Best regards,
Reimar
