transmitting, to an additional UE, an additional downlink data message;
receiving, from the additional UE and prior to an additional feedback opportunity for a result of an additional decoding process for the additional downlink data message at the additional UE, an additional predicted negative acknowledgment message for the additional downlink data message;
determining that an additional prediction metric indicated by the additional predicted negative acknowledgment message fails to satisfy the retransmission threshold; and
