I'm not really quite sure how LIMITED it supposed to work?
I mean, I could imagine all kinds of limits ...
* limit to anything <= the given rate in kbps
* limit to anything with long GI
* limit to NSS <= given NSS
* limit to MCS <= given MCS
etc.
I guess you could find a <= comparison for each dimension of the various
parameters, and then if you don't want that particular one limited you
give the maximum? Still not really clear to me how that should work.
Also, would it be allowed to pass an invalid rate? Like something like
"100Mbps legacy rate" when that's certainly not valid? You have no
validation on this, so for LIMITED that might still seem useful (per my
first bullet point above) but for anything else ... not so much?
