Ah, indeed.
I forgot that we went through all of this a few years ago for your
eb398797cd (connect: advertized capability is not a ref, 2016-09-09). I
stand behind the "it was probably originally an error in the protocol
documentation" from [1], but at this point I think we can say it's a
supported part of the protocol.
All of this is moot, of course, if we only do the v2 solution. :)
