Fully agree with that point and this should be revised as soon as there is = some stabilisation in the specification. Out of my head, the following things mo= re or less directly depend on this: * Oscillation Prevention from RFC 3448 / rfc3448bis - affects also `congestion control on LANs' (a point you raised) - with the RTTs measured on layer 4, this would be useful since when sending `blasts' of packets, the queue buildup is quickly p= erceivable * Faster Restart * the CCID 3 definition of idle times - RFC 4342 (6.4) uses the max(0.2 se= c, 2*RTT) * ... other areas depending on the calculation I may have missed =20
