When a peer tries to regraft too early, the pruning peer may apply a behavioural penalty
for the action, and penalize the peer through P₇ (see [Peer Scoring](#peer-scoring) below).
When unsubscribing from a topic, the backoff period should be finished before subscribing to
the topic again, otherwise a healthy mesh will be difficult to reach.
A specific backoff period for unsubscribing should be set accordingly.
The recommended duration for the backoff period is 1 minute, while the recommended number of peers
to exchange is larger than `D_hi` so that the pruned peer can reliably form a full mesh.
In order to correctly synchronize the two peers, the pruning peer should include the backoff period
