I do.

RFC-3168 specifies that routers "treat ECT(0) and ECT(1) as equivalent".  So implementing this first step would cause these Linux AQMs to violate RFC-3168.  I'm sure the kernel maintainers will be justified in rejecting patches on that basis.  Certainly I would raise such objections were such a patch to come to my attention.

To make that objection go away, you must first update and obsolete RFC-3168 so that it no longer contains that requirement.  That requires convincing the IETF that it's a good idea.  Again, I will maintain that it is a spectacularly bad idea.
