You completely removed entire thread and discussion making it difficult
to connect to one of 100 or more discussions I am doing.

Plus wrap your emails according to netiquette rules.

The guest should not care about the value. Otherwise what if guests
decides to ignore your DT property and start using other value? Sniffing
other guests traffic? Causing conflicts or denial of service?

If different values are important for the host, then all guests should
use whatever 0 which will map to different values on host by other means
of your protocol.
