It would certainly be optimal if every node implemented it. But any node
can detect the endpoint round-trip time, and how it degrades, and thus
adjust how fast it feeds packets into the network. And a midpoint can
detect when a host is feeding packets too fast for downstream nodes, and
send explicit congestion notification, and failing that, drop some packets
from that source.
