I probably shouldn't be commenting because I don't have any experience at this level, but given it's a closed system where they control supply and demand it seems they could manage away most congestion issues with scheduling/orchestration. They still have a primitive flow control in the protocol and it seems like you could create something akin to a virtual sliding window just by instrumenting the retransmits.

But now I am curious with the distribution of observed window sizes is in the wild.

Edit: I'd bet the simpler protocol is more vulnerable to various spoofing attacks though.

Edit2: Lol I hope the frame IDs are for illustrative purposes only - https://chipsandcheese.com/2024/08/27/teslas-ttpoe-at-hot-ch...
