Right? Yes, in general, users always had the power to override the name of these topics, and if the topic name didn't match the `isInternalTopic` policy, it would replicate anyway. The main problem I am seeing is preventing the unintentional replication of these topics for users who use default names for these topics, for example `mm2-offsets.{source}.internal` and setup diff value for the separator after upgrading to 3.1 which includes KIP-690. -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
