Joss Langford commented on COEL-170:
------------------------------------

From comments:

Let's be sure we make it clear what we mean here: In some of these cases the error response is specified above. The question is whether the DE provides any additional services like quarantining the atoms or post-processing them later to see if the consumer/device ID becomes valid a bit later….

I don't see how a DE could state that it would return an error in this case: Checking each incoming atom against it's store for duplicates would be quite a burden and what would be the value? I think it is either duplicate or overwrite.

If we mean 'syntactically invalid' – i/e/ not a pseudonymous key, then the DE has to return a 400 in both of these cases.

> Make it clear that a DE is not mandated to return an error in the case that a C.ID or D.ID is not registered (do not want to put a strong requirement on DE to check incoming atoms against existing store).
