gollark: It encourages people to keep doing their silly standard-violating things because they technically *work*, and makes your parsing logic more complex and flaky.
gollark: And they *do* handle it, because at some point down the line someone thought making it compatible was better than encouraging people to NOT DO REALLY STUPID UNPARSEABLE THINGS.
gollark: A few websites will just go "Standards? What are they?" and ignore the standards and then just expect parsers to handle it anyway.
