I can't speak for MPTCP, but is seems to me that MPTCP is based on the
assumption that it *can* perform intelligent locator selection based on
feedback from transport layer ACKs (or their absence). That's if your
definition of intelligence is 'get the most out of the network layer
without caring about path selection.'
