Yes that was the aim, but since it isn't causing any sort of problem why
not provide this feature? It's replying to messages not understood that may
come handy in the case someone (or some scripting app) accidentally try to
use it.

Because you don't know that it isn't understood by the parent class. If you
applied this same logic all over the API, you'd be getting so much noise
that it's useless. If it's a scripting message, BHandler already replies
with an error if it couldn't understand the specifiers anyways.
