How can that be?  I've been under the impression that headers can be
refilled at will; filling is a defined and reversible process which has no
effect on the content of the headers.

The lack of filling really gets unnerving as you start to get bounces from
gateways that can't handle the incredibly long lines it generates.  This
actually limits my ability to send mail at all to certain people, which I
deem worse than confusing a few clients.
