Well less serious for TE SIDs, I am not sure the problem is restricted to just service SIDs. Suppose that the PCE has specified the path to meet some complex te objective. The bypass node has no way of knowing what those constraints were. And for some kinds of traffic, it is better to drop the packet than to deliver it outside the envelop. I suspect that the right answer to this is "too bad". If so, as with the distinction regarding service nodes, we should say so, shouldn't we?
