[e2e] Congestion control is not mandatory?

How come?

This is curious ... it just occured to me that RFC 2581 is
just a Proposed Standard.

That means that I can build a fully conformant TCP/IP
which does not do congestion control, doesn't it?

This is just weird... or is there a particular reason for this?

Cheers,
Michael
