Hello, I was wondering why it has been mandated for responses to be sent in RID order. The only reason I can think of is that Req/Res ACKs are optional and in that case, the current strategy is the only way to ensure in-order response delivery (is there any other reason?). Was wondering if it makes sense to make it compulsory to have Req/Res ACKs and separate RequestID and ResponseID as separate counters. It would surely simplify implementations.
