Parsing on input keeps the network sane and helps everybody. You do it or not do it, it's your client's decision, self-contained and virtuous.

Parsing on on display is Postel's law and trying to fix people's mess while incentivizing them to do more and more mess until you can't fix it all. If you do it you create work for everybody else and protocol bloat.
