Agreed. FWIW, the descriptor published by this relay confused Metrics
quite a bit. But that's okay, we'll just make Metrics more robust. The
good news is that we didn't lose any data in the process.

If somebody wants to generate a bunch of fuzzed descriptors that conform
to the spec, I'll happily throw them into a local Metrics instance to
see if anything else breaks. I could imagine that Damian would do the
same with stem and Philipp with zoossh.

All the best,
