Which begs the question if the retransmission delay will kill the
application.

Right. One other place where we can structure the milestones further is by
starting with retransmission mode only and add FEC mode in a second step.

So this would give us a nice and small first deliverable (retransmission
mode for node-to-node) that we can then recharter from. If we do this
right, this doesn’t even need to increase the time up to when we deliver
the whole protocol including both host-to-node and FEC.
