@dalias @DanielMicay I think you're more arguing about data consumption than bandwidth per se.

The vast majority of synchronous networking protocols account in exactly no way for data limitations.

That type of adverse condition is largely ignored in the design of basically everything other than #DelayTolerant #networking where limitations in #StoreAndForward nodes' storage (which is actively involved and limits data) and so data simply cannot be ignored.
