Eric, can you provide some detail on this statement?

I don't understand why QUIC wouldn't have this same issue. Seems like
it is still connection oriented just like TCP, so if the application
does a read expecting data from a peer and reverse reachability is
lost, the the read on the socket hang just like reading a TCP would.
If this is true, then the TCP solution would might actually be a
better since it allows a means for a third party (presumably a daemon
monitoring the network) to signal the application via closing specific
TCP sockets. I don't see how this could work in UDP especially if
these are unconnected sockets. What am I missing?

Thanks,
Tom
