The SUBSCRIBES_BLOCKED message is sent when a subscriber would like to begin a new subscription, but cannot because the Subscribe ID would exceed the Maximum Subscribe ID value sent by the peer. The subscriber SHOULD send only one SUBSCRIBES_BLOCKED for a given Maximum Subscribe ID.
A publisher MAY send a MAX_SUBSCRIBE_ID upon receipt of SUBSCRIBES_BLOCKED, but it MUST NOT rely on SUBSCRIBES_BLOCKED to trigger sending a MAX_SUBSCRIBE_ID, because sending SUBSCRIBES_BLOCKED is not required.
