Moreover, in general, there are very few current DAW host+plugin
systems where the MIDI output would ever match the input byte-for-byte
even if the plugins did nothing to them. If the native MIDI API didn't
transmogrify the byte stream, the host will in order to route/merge
data to/from different plugins.
What matters are not byte-level correspondence, but semantic
correspondence, and this is easily achievable.
