This has always surprised me as this always comes up in MCP discussions.
To me, it just seem like a matter of updating the protocol to not have that context hungry behaviour. Doesn't seem like an insurmountable problem technically.
Glad you say it has already been addressed. Was the protocol itself updated to reflect that? Or are you just referring to off-spec implementations?
