 ~~~
   OnAckReceived(ack):
+    largest_acked_packet = max(largest_acked_packet,

I think this accurately describes the text we have, but I think we should add some text that you MAY use the largest acked from the most recent ACK, which could reduce spurious retransmits when one packet arrives far out of order?
