You are confusing client-side and server-side validation. The server should validate thrift inserts against cql3 table to prevent egregiously malformed data, per the discussion on [1]. (Of course even on the server we're limited to "this bunch of bytes here could probably be an int" but that should be enough to prevent AIOBE.)
So if rc1 has validation problems, we should be able to fix that. (An example with the cli would be easiest to address.)
