As a point of order, SCE is not specific to TCP.  TCP is merely the most convenient congestion-aware protocol to experiment with, and therefore the one we have adapted first.  Other protocols which already are (or aspire to be) TCP friendly, especially QUIC, should also be straightforward to adapt to SCE.

I should also note that TCP is the de-facto gold standard, by which all other congestion control is measured, for better or worse.  SCE is included in this, insofar as competing reasonably with standard TCP flows under all reasonable network conditions is necessary to introduce a new congestion control paradigm.  This, I think, is also part of the end-to-end principle.
