While certainly verbose, I didn't find this a particularly complex part
of your protocol. Debugging tools are generally a good thing,
particularly with such a complex combination of messages and state
machine. If you end up simplifying your state machine and set of
messages, then reducing the number of possible errors to report on may
very well follow naturally.
