I agree, but FWIW it is an old ccTLD (so not like a new server/TLD
just having appeared), and I just stumbled on that by chance recently
and was keen to share with the community, but since I guess this exists for a 
long
time, no one was feeling it should be corrected, so I guess it will persist
for a long time. Unfortunately.

But it happens, often (maybe?) it is simpler for registrars to work around
(with local "patches") what they think is a problem from responses they got,
than trying to make the registry act on them. It is just a matter of finding
out where your time is better spent, since "being 100% standard compliant"
is not exactly a big selling point for customers, just accepting orders
may be preferred, business-wise, than taking time to put pressure on registries
to fix things.

There is no worldwide EPP police indeed.

Unfortunately.
Or fortunately :-)
