Historically it's been "when people stop filing bug reports". I haven't seen any bug reports of type "my protocol X is getting dissected as openSAFETY instead", so I think you're ok :)

This might increase the time the dissection needs to filter. The second approach is to include a preference, and filter out certain number in a field, because they highly suggest a false-positive.
