It looks to me as if it's assumed that forward error correction will be 
needed. If you know you won't lose two consecutive packets, you can 
design the FEC around that assumption. On the other hand, if the network 
can reserve enough resource to ensure that level of service, you'd think 
it could manage to arrange that you don't lose any, except in very rare 
circumstances such as equipment malfunction. If the idea is to allow for 
interference on a radio link, I don't see how you can ensure that no 
burst of interference is long enough to affect two consecutive packets.
