Implementing BCP 38 is additional work that's only required [..] That's like saying that the fact that I need to lock my door makes me a 'victim' of the existence of thieves, because otherwise I wouldn't need locks. That's not how the word 'victim' is used, either in general or in this particular context. Insisting on some extremely literal interpretation on the word 'victim' is entirely unhelpful here.
