Interleaving the FEC can also avoid bursts. The tradeoff is the more you interleave, the higher the latency on reconstruction. They could do something like using round trip time to calculate the number of packets in the air and interleave based on that.

I was working on this type of stuff 15 years ago and now might be the time to do it. Bandwidth keeps increasing but latency stays the same, so it makes sense to waste some bandwidth to improve latency.
