Till now, I thought that when RTS/CTS is used, 100% throughput is
guaranteed, but if you show it as a "good yield" in terms of "losses
over general throughput", then I agree that it's a satisfying result!

I was quite surprised to see this error at all.

As far as I understood now, "the silo error can appear from time to
time without any reason to worry."
