Safe? When the "format" is flaky, fragile, unreliable and faulty?

Mike Richter on packet writing "format":

the most fragile format
the inherent fragility of the format
the flaky UDF fixed-length packets
the format is very fragile and unreliable

the fault is not with the software but with the format

the format is fragile;
the fault is not in the software per se.
