IP have lots of things. Hop-by-hop-headers for instance. Really bad idea.
Again, something broken needs fixing. You can chase the symptoms forever
or you can deal with the cause. It’s simply not tenable to ‘fix’ the
internet to accommodate broken devices.
The thing here is that you haven't proposed a realistic way to deal with
the problem. We do not have any enforcement mechanism.
Applications need to work when faced with adverse conditions. They can
work less well, that's fine, but they still need to work.
