Re: #1416: USEPRO 3.9: Reinjection and Injection-Date

Reinjection similarly can be assured of not creating loops simply
by preserving the identity of the article (both Message-ID and Date header
fields) when reinjecting.


Hence it follows that if we were to make the rules for Injection-Date
exactly the same as the current rules for Date, it would result in a
system no different from the present situation, except for an increase in
the staleness margin for late-injected articles.


Sure, after the flag day.

Since that won't happen, re-injectors would rely on the false statements in USEPRO that tell them Injection-Date is honored, when the non-upgraded servers still look at Date.

Don't you think that is a problem?
