+  # means other extension namespaces will be expanded, malformed JSON-LD
+  # attributes lost, and some values “unexpectedly” compacted this method
+  # patches the following likely sources of incompatibility:
+  # - 'https://www.w3.org/ns/activitystreams#Public' being compacted to
+  #   'as:Public' (for instance, pre-3.4.0 Mastodon does not understand
+  #   'as:Public')
+  # - single-item arrays being compacted to the item itself (`[foo]` being
+  #   compacted to `foo`)
