I don't think that's what accepting harmful interference means. It means more like, if there is noise in the channel, the device won't just up its own power to clobber the noise, even if not doing that will somehow break it or otherwise make it not work right. It doesn't mean you have to build the device so that some kinds of interference will cause it to break.

i have always interpreted it as you cannot block signals that will break you. like if the us military drops an emp on you, you can't design for that.

now that i type it out i realize how weird it sounds though.
