Code change:
PMTU probes are ack-eliciting packets. Endpoints could limit the content of PMTU probes to PING and PADDING <del> frames as packets that are larger than the current maximum packet size are more likely to be dropped by the network.  Loss of a QUIC packet that is carried in a PMTU probe is therefore not a reliable indication of congestion and SHOULD NOT trigger a congestion control reaction; see Section 3, Bullet 7 of DPLPMTUD.  However, PMTU probes consume congestion window, which could delay subsequent transmission by an application. </del> <ins> frames, since packets that are larger than the current maximum datagram size are more likely to be dropped by the network.

text: Addresses . NAME points out in that we use in the transport draft and in the recovery draft. In reading carefully, I realized that in the transport draft was actually historical, and is the more appropriate term. This is an entirely editorial PR, and it's largely simple changes, despite the fact that it looks a bit big. It is a bit subtle though. Sorry about that.
This issue will list a number of minor editorial things that should be checked and likely addressed with some editorial fixes: Section 5.3: "These delays are computed using the ACK Delay field of the ACK frame as described in Section 19.3 of [QUIC-TRANSPORT]." This text implies that the computation of the delay is described in Section 19.3 of QUIC-TRANSPORT. However, I don't think it is described the calculation, only the definition of the field. Please reformulate to imply only field definition not calculation. Section 5.3: "On the first RTT sample for the network path, that sample is used as rttsample. This ensures that the first measurement erases the history of any persisted or default values." I think this intended to cover cases where path changes are detected. But it is not well expressed. Does this need a reformulation and a reference into QUIC-TRANSPORT where it states when such a reset should occur? Section 6.1: "Either its packet number is kPacketThreshold smaller than an acknowledged packet" Nitpicking, assuming no PN gaps in transmission. Does that need a note? Section 6.2.4: "An endpoint MAY send up to two full-sized datagrams containing ack-eliciting packets, to avoid an expensive consecutive PTO expiration due to a single lost datagram or transmit data from multiple packet number spaces." This last part, I assume intended to generate additional datagrams to prevent single loss to impact. However, due to coalescing this is unclear in this context. Section 7: "Endpoints can unilaterally choose a different algorithm to use, such as Cubic ([RFC8312])." I think this sentence should be explicit that in needs to be sender-based algorithms. I think we need to have the requirement on performing congestion control on the sender unless there has been explicit agreement with the receiver that they will do it.
