Without knowing what the parts contain, I can't say whether the format is
appropriate or not, but your interpretation of what should happen is
incorrect - a standards compliant MUA that understands text/calendar should
process that part (the last understood alternative is the one that is
supposed to be preferred)

Gaah.  Pass me the caffeine, will ya? :)

I got led down the primrose path of thinking it was the *first* understood
one because I've seen far too many meeting invites that had crucial info
buried in the text/html that would be ignored if only the text/calendar
was processed....

... though now I am starting to understand why I've been in so many
meetings where it seems like only the organizer and myself had read the memo :)
