QUIC, a new protocol used for specific purposes and implemented in
userspace from the start is significantly different from making the
kernel's _TCP_ implementation bypassed into a userspace one just by
UDP encapsulating it.

That is a major and conscious change in our mentality.

The consequences are far and wide, and I'm having a very hard time
seeing the benefits you cite being larger than the negatives here.
