There’s nothing ruder in hypertext etiquette than giving someone a link to navigate to someone else’s HTTP server, where you have manipulated that URL in some way unsanctioned by the server you are sending them to.
You can’t just send arbitrary query string parameters to a server and assume they will just ignore them. Just like you can’t just remove query string parameters and assume the URL will work.
