The solution was nearly always to create golden packages which could be summarised.

XMPP v1 server could be just XMPP itself.

A v2 client/server includes packages for OMEMO, Websocket, Resumeable connections

A v3 client/server has packages for whatever else becomes the de jour.

The idea that you can just mix and match without ever standardising on a set of capabilities was a large part of what killed XMPP and was entirely solvable.

This is what happens. Compliance suites are published annually: https://xmpp.org/about/compliance-suites.html

This is either barely getting used or not used enough (or maybe too hidden). Because I had only seen single XEP lists for both clients and servers I looked at.
