 To limit ACK Blocks to those that have not yet been received by the sender, the
 receiver SHOULD track which ACK frames have been acknowledged by its peer.  Once
-an ACK frame has been acknowledged, the packets it acknowledges SHOULD NOT be
-acknowledged again.
+an ACK frame has been acknowledged, an endpoint SHOULD omit all ACK Blocks that
+have not changed since the ACK frame was sent from future ACK frames.

Cant this be reworded somehow? I think I know what it means, but I don't understand the text.
