I don't think there is any argument that can be made that stapling one
protocol onto another is a clean model.

You're being very sneaky there.  We're not stapling SysEx, we're special
casing it.  There is nothing to staple it TO, because SysEx is
fundamentally not a GMPI message.  So the idea that there is some
stapling precedent is false.
