IOW, the test intentionally violates the protocol and then all goes wonky
because of that.
That's why I was wondering upthread what's it's supposed to test.
I mean, regression tests are meant to warn against a desirable behavior
being unknowingly changed by new code into an undesirable behavior.
Here we have the undesirable behavior to start with.
What kind of regression could we fear from that?
