More than likely, but there's always the possibility that we missed
one or two, or that new programs may forget to check the PID byte.

The typical way of protecting (in some sense) a protocol or standard is to
aggressively protect the copyright of the specification document. The actual
grouping of bits or whatnot

B
Xastir's use of the protocols is well established and without dissent.
From Bob or any of the other developers. In fact, no one has
complained when anyone wanted to come up with another implementation.

rather the frequency is
