You are right, sorry for the confusion. Reasons against it:
- People will enable it which will lead to more congestion because of
more packets.
- A global sysctl is not fine grained enough, if you need it make it at
least a per route attribute (like mss or window)
Because of the first reason I would prefer to not implement it.
