This is exactly this issue that I raised last week[1], although I was 
talking about the case when you are using a HTTP2 load balancer that 
also has HTTP 1 clients, although the same issue arrises when you have 
HTTP2 clients with push disabled. I raised an issue[2] but apparently it 
is too late to do anything about it.
