This is also why SMTP is such a fucked up protocol. It was designed so that you could just follow the email protocol by hand. HTTP as well followed this philosophy (up to 2.0 at least). A decade or so ago there was a bug in outlook where you couldn’t have a line with only a period in it because that’s the end-of-email signal in SMTP.

Lite was made for Manifest V3. They had to drop a bunch of features to get it functioning which is why it’s called “Lite”.
