its not neccessary for you or me to accept either case.
its neccessary to provide evidence

ATM there is evidence for 3 cases that have biSize include the non
palette extradata and 0 cases that do not.

the spec suggests that strd not strf should be used
neither code before nor after the patch does that, nor do actual
official codecs i would suspect. maybe because they predate strd,
its not part of docuemnts from 1997 that i have laying around.

Thus i suspect (but do not know) that redefining BITMAPINFOHEADER was
neccessary back then to store a global header, which is likely what
everyone did. I wouldnt call that spec-breaking

but quite possibly iam missing something

If you drop bombs on a foreign country and kill hundred thousands of
innocent people, expect your government to call the consequence
"unprovoked inhuman terrorist attacks" and use it to justify dropping
more bombs and killing more people. The technology changed, the idea is old.
