Flip a coin. One could make either argument about the root of the problem. The bigger question is, if you code to prevent the bogus property from being set, what will happen when you access a repository via HTTP which already had those bogus properties set? You've stopped people from setting them in the future, which is fine - but you still have to handle the scenario where someone accesses the ones that were previously set.
