It considers if an interval is 2 RTT old, instead of 2 RTT long. But I sent this code in this state anyway, because I want to ask how to solve this problem. I imagined that would be possible to check the loss interval length upon receiving the feedback from the receiver that contains new loss intervals option, and to compare this with previous loss intervals info received. With this correction I would be able to return the tx history back to it's normal behavior, instead of keeping 2 RTT's of packets. Any help/opinions about this?
