Yes, this is to cover loss estimation. We didn't discuss this at the interim, but it did come up in my survey of exported, passively measured metrics. This is here for completeness.

It's less important to react to loss on a per-flow basis than it is latency, though. So as long as (1) we can assume UDP and TCP traffic are treated equivalently by the link/queue at which the loss occurs and (2) there is some TCP traffic through that link/queue, inference-based observation of TCP will continue to work.
