They are wrong.

You should not and there is no elegant way. I believe it would work to supply an AuthnRequest "template" and put in a NameIDPolicy element explicitly that has the unnecessary change. The template feature is mentioned in the SessionInitiator docs for the SAML2 initiator type, and stuffing the template underneath the SSO element would work.

I would not do this. Tolerating bugs is a bad strategy and is counterproductve for everybody.
