> I'd be happy with just saying ack_delay is units of milliseconds and do away with ack_delay_exponent.

While millisecond granularity would be sufficient (and also efficient in terms of the size of the ACK frame) for connections between the web browsers and the servers, more accuracy is desirable for intra-datacenter connections (as @ianswett has pointed out).

Therefore, my preference would be to retain a TP that can be used to scale the granularity.
