Actually, that is the ideal outcome. ECT(0) signals ECT-Capable, ECT(1)
and CE signal two levels of congestion. In other words, SCE everywhere.

Maybe that is an argument that you can throw at them: if it is safe to
ignore classic ECN, might as well move straight to SCE with non-ECT
traffic shunted off to a separate queue(s).
