I reckon it is still an abuse. I am willing to interpret longer target URIs… so long as they don’t contain a question mark. /no-query-strings is longer than /?.

The standard doesn't say that you must accept all URIs up to a certain length. You're allowed to decide, based on context, what is "too long".

That is to say, you're allowed to have a double standard. And I love this sort of stuff, thanks for sharing.
