mircea_popescu: the only way to avoid this is being in my wot. which the derps in question are not. so therefore they do not exist.
mircea_popescu: i personally don't give a shit. my thinking is, if im making a backloading hoe, i shall name my backloading hoe a backloading hoe. sure, someone may or may not exist figuring his hoe is THE backloading hoe. this does not interest me. if he has already built a "backhoe loading palace" or not, if and when i feel like building a backhoe loading palace, i shall call it... guess ?

mircea_popescu: thus the hack makes the sane implementation null itself and fixes the checksum too, while the original ignores both operations because not two bytes involved.
mircea_popescu: decimation the original only writes bytes in pair. sane implementation write bytes as presented
mircea_popescu: this is a case of, broken implementation uses its own brokenness to deny things to better competitors
