Your BIP is really incomplete without a discussion of what clients make use of
unannounced tx messages, their goals for doing it, and how they are expected to
achieve those goals once all nodes discontinue unannounced tx messages.

It seems to me that implementing wallets with good UX could become a lot more
difficult if this change results in it taking significantly longer for a tx to
be broadcast. I don't know if it will. But you need to address this issue.
