Using SSH Tunnels is not TCP over TCP.
You have a TCP connection between local app and SSH client, then a second TCP connection between SSH client and SSH server, and a third TCP connection between SSH server and remote app.
There is no TCP over TCP when you use SSH tunnels. Lost packets between SSH client and SSH server do not cause retransmits on either application side.
