I'm slightly worried that some ill-advised an endpoint might spam the other endpoint with endless IDs that are being naively stored by the peer instead of retired causing a targeted or involuntary DoS attack. Even if the peer retires the IDs timely, it might not have credits to get rid of them. Of course, defense is to shut down bad behavior, but perhaps it should be considered in an advisory algorithm.
