Hang on. We are talking about "real security" and not good-old
plain-text security world right?

Security needs to be end-to-end. Choice of transport protocol doesn't
matter. e2e101.

Email security is in your PGP/SMIME signature; doesn't matter whether it
was transferred over UDP or TCP. You can come up with similar arguments
for P2P apps.

Of course if you are willing to trade off real security for
implementation ease (laziness?), then thats a different issue.
