As Steve Atkins mentioned later in the thread, there's efficacy and
accuracy, two different aspects.  I don't think there's anybody who
would dispute efficacy - rejecting at the source is clearly more
efficient.

That last word makes it appear you are confusing efficacy
("effectiveness") with efficiency ("efficientness").

As for whether rejecting at the source is more efficient, that depends
on what you are measuring efficiency with respect to.  Network traffic?
CPU cycles?  Implementor time?  Maintainer time?  It makes a big
difference.
