@saagar ok but these guarantees are routinely broken by shitty implementations and then either the spec has to be retroactively loosened, or everyone just looks away and pretends those non-compliant implementations don't exist (but then they are things like Windows or glibc).

@saagar if the guarantees are too complicated for implementers to get right, then there truly are no guarantees.
