-kMinRTOTimeout:
-:  Minimum time in the future an RTO timer may be set for. The RECOMMENDED
-   value is 200ms.
+: Timer granularity. This is a system-dependent value.  However, implementations
+  SHOULD use a value no smaller than 1ms.
 
 kDelayedAckTimeout:
 : The length of the peer's delayed ack timer. The RECOMMENDED value is 25ms.
 
 kInitialRtt:

Ok I will open a separate issue. This will cause unnecessary timeouts for CI and 0-RTT data on many Internet paths. And pretty much always on satellite links. If we want to pick a magic number then let's pick 200 msec or 300 msec (the historical minrto values for Linux and Windows respectively).
