Oops, didn’t finish reading the email. Sorry for the double reply:

This is definitely inspired by that issue with distributions, but I believe we 
decided no part of that message was considered a summary so it doesn’t actually 
do anything in that case. In general, however, the summary thing just seems 
like a bad idea: if a message says something, it should either ratify that or 
nothing—we shouldn’t have to read the full message to make sure it doesn’t do 
something else.
