In which case it is zero because that is the default value.

If you want to make arguments about sshtresh value, you need to provide
tcp traces of good vs problematic connection and get a good idea of
what the intermediate path and remote host OS is.  Since you are
the first to raise the issue, you will have to provide a lot of evidence
to overcome the developer suspicion that the problem is due to
buggy middle boxes, hardware or the other end.
