I may be wrong, but as far as I know the spec says one thing, the actual OGC
test engine that checks
if a server is compliant does the other. We follow the latter so that we can
pass the tests and be certified compliant.
This behavior has been there for years without much of a complaint (you're
the second to notice it,
but WFS clients do work fine with the WFS as is)
