[SIPForum-discussion] transaction...

What you said is not the root cause. Please refer to the RFC3261 -17.
Transactions:
 
      The reason for this separation is rooted in the importance of
      delivering all 200 (OK) responses to an INVITE to the UAC.  To
      deliver them all to the UAC, the UAS alone takes responsibility
      for retransmitting them (see Section 13.3.1.4), and the UAC alone
      takes responsibility for acknowledging them with ACK (see Section
      13.2.2.4).  Since this ACK is retransmitted only by the UAC, it is
      effectively considered its own transaction.
 
And in my opinion, when the transaction layer of the UAC/UAS will be
destroyed as soon as the 200 OK(Invite) is received. At this time, the
UAC and UAS already know the location of each other. It means that the
stateless proxy between them is not used any more. The ACK, which is
created in a new transaction, will be transmitted from UAC to UAS
directly.

Thanks,
