There's no good answer, sorry. I knew folks would ask, so I asked
the WG and it seems to me to be a case that nobody cares really so
they just picked one and aren't much energised to talk more about
it. That's not too unreasonable. See the thread at [1] for some
more.

Given that this is widely deployed and a similar feature is being
included in TLS1.3, there is no real experiment here, what the WG
care about is that this RFC be not-PS I reckon.
