"Especially, when things were designed long before these new spectrum allocations."
See my post about international radio regulations, the 5G service should not have been allocated if it was going to interfere with radar altimeters as that was (and still is) a 'going' service and it takes precedence under international radio treaties.
Thus, an aircraft from a country that's not under US jurisdiction expects to be able to land in the US without its radar altimeter being jammed by some unexpected local service. (It stands to reason that the safety of an aircraft that travels across international borders should not be endangered because of inference to its navigation equipment.)
This is the precise reason why international radio regulations exist! Under the treaty the 'interference' rules apply to ALL radiocommunication services.
If such regulations (standards) are deemed 'old' then they have to be changed at an ITU WRC meeting in Geneva and the item must appear on the meeting's agenda some years before said meeting takes place to give all countries adequate time to respond (as I mentioned elsewhere, I was once involved in that process).
