OK, so because we know the loss detection algorithm we can infer what the sender has given up on.  That sounds like it might be problematic when the loss detection is timer-based. Moreover, it turns loss detection into something that must be carefully negotiated between endpoints, rather than simply innovating on one end.

Perhaps I should give you a chance to write it up before trying to poke holes in it. :-)
