All BECN-for-the-Internet efforts that I know of used SQ. It's handy
because it's available and designed for that purpose. And whatever
you use doesn't really matter.
And you can't limit it to this simple question; it's just a little
more complex. But if you absolutely WANT it as simple as that
("could it replace ECN because it's plainly better"), the answer is no.
> (2) can we design a "cheap" mechanism using backward ECN
Now that's a relevant question. :)
Cheers,
Michael
