Code that is invalid but compiles is already broken by 
definition. These are potentially silent bugs in the code base, 
which are never good for anyone. I'd rather know about 
accepted-invalid code sooner in a development environment than 
later in an production environment.

Furthermore, holding back on fixing accepts-invalid will allow 
more invalid code to sneak into the ever expanding code base, 
making the problem worse over time.
