Since the code they show and their comment says `uint32_t timer` wraps, but then their math doesn’t wrap it, I wonder how they missed this.

It’s also weird that their “smoking gun” example is with active TCP traffic, which (should?) be updating tcp_now and would make them more likely to fall into the “TCP_WAIT is immediately closed” case.
