 An ACK frame SHOULD be generated for at least every second ack-eliciting packet.
 This recommendation is in keeping with standard practice for TCP {{?RFC5681}}.
+Every ack-eliciting packet MUST be acknowledged in at least one transmitted

```suggestion
ACK frame, and SHOULD typically be acknowledged in more than one ACK frame.
