I often see the "Robustness Principle" invoked when discussing ways to improve #ActivityPub interop. There's an IETF draft that discusses the negative consequences of this strategy. Instead, they suggest that "A community that takes an active role in the maintenance of protocols will no longer need to rely on the robustness principle to avoid interoperability issues." Sounds great to me.
