The RFC process itself is broken when clueless vendors treat RFCs as
inviolable specs and implement according to the RFC even when they find
flaws in it. If they want to remain true to the RFC process, they should
not implement dumb things found in an RFC, instead they should write and
submit a new RFC correcting the error and explaining the right way to do
things.
Exactly. The nice thing about standards is that there are so many to
choose from! Why not add a few more?
