but if you lose packets at the first recovery: 
-with the buffer_fullness method you may or may not reach
the required buffer size (and possibly not flush, that may not
be what the sender expects the receiver to do)
- whereas with transmit_ts you are sure that you have
to flush all packets with dts < transmit_ts, whatever
size they actually amount to

Or I'm missing something?
