Could you build this?

No Developing kernel-level eBPF struct_ops TCP congestion control modules with a Rust control plane requires deep Linux kernel networking, eBPF verifier internals, and transport-layer algorithm expertise.

What it would actually take: Implementation requires writing C/eBPF code implementing `struct tcp_congestion_ops` (e.g., `cong_avoid`, `ssthresh`, `set_state`) hooked via `BPF_PROG_TYPE_STRUCT_OPS` in Linux 6.12+, managed by a user-space Rust daemon (using Aya or libbpf-rs). The core difficulty lies in designing mathematical congestion control algorithms that distinguish between random link packet loss and buffer congestion without destabilizing network flows or triggering kernel panics.
