One man's cargo cult is another man's namespace management. Every existing use of _<service> names is behind a _<proto> name, and there seems to me considerable merit to keep it that way, at the trivial cost of a possibly uninteresting _tcp or _udp in the name. If the extra five bytes is an issue, I suppose we could use _c rather than _client for the client tag. While saving five characters was a big deal when I was programming PDP-8's almost 50 years ago, I don't get it now.
