> I think this issue is an indirect justification for implicit ACK.

I am not sure if it is. To me, it seems that the fact that we have an unrecoverable situation for lower epochs and if we need to shutdown the connection in such a situation are different.

Can't the endpoints simply continue communicating using higher epochs, regardless of if there was something not ACKed when they drop the context of lower epochs?
