For me, the rule isn't irrelevant. It provides the default that people can follow and expect others to follow, BUT there's nothing wrong with encounters where people mutually choose not to follow the default. Key word there is mutually. So yeah, sometimes I'm in a groove going up and choose not to stop. Other times I hear the descending rider and stop and hop off the trail to let them continue ripping while I take a breather.
