Lightning invoices may be overpaid up to twice the amount. Multiplexer can't just reject overpayments, because the sender may not understand what's wrong. Overpayments aren't necessarily a decision of the sending user. Pathfinding algorithms for example may overpay to overcome a min_htlc constraint that is part of a routing policy.

lightning/bolts#1032 is relaxing the requirements for accepting payments even further.
