... but, that's exactly the root cause of previous failures. wireguard is basically saying "we don't know how to do that well enough, so we're not baking it in for now".
Why does the "increasing integer" matter to you? In what way is it better than "I am willing to protocol 1, 4 and 7" (implicitly "but not 2, 3, 5, 6, 8, 9, 10,"...)? And the "I am willing to .." is just a successful handshake. You try in order of preference; If you succeed, other side supports it. If you don't, you go to the next one. Wireguard does not produce a response unless to a non-confirming attempt.
