> OpenTelemetry has a very questionable implementation

The nice thing about OpenTelemetry is that it's a standard. The questionable implementation you're referencing isn't a source of truth. There isn't some canonical "questionable" implementation.

There are many, slightly different, questionable implementations.

If the wire protocol has a bug, that’s not something an implementation can fix.

I’m saying the wire protocol is wrong.
