> Right now, it seems all but one implementation (quicly) is using the default ack_delay_exponent value of 8. Quicly is using an even higher value of 10 because they don't care about more than millisecond timer resolution.

The default value is not 8, it's 3. So what quicly makes a pretty big difference here: They're using a multiplier of 1024 instead of 8.

As I've already remarked on Slack, if we want to allow implementations to scale this value, it seems to make more sense to specify a multiplier instead of an exponent.
