I'm not sure it matters. It almost doesn't even matter for legacy
(CCK/OFDM) because devices practically always do it anyway?

And for HT/VHT it's just quite a bit more complicated, so we never
bothered, since it wasn't necessary.

It couldn't even really be done since there are A-MPDUs and other things
happening at a lower layer.
