You are making in flawed assumption about how things are going to
behaved. You can't design a protocol like this.

The protocol verification process has to work on the basis of consistent
logic and expectations of the system regardless of how the message was
created or not.

    DO NOT ACCEPT IF AN OA SIGNATURE IS MISSING.
    DO NOT ACCEPT IF A 3RD PARTY SIGNATURE IS PRESENT.
