Exactly. You buy speed by having an unreliable transport. That's somehow
fair, if you can accept loosing packets (for instance to transmit voice
or video, as you can fill the blanks ...).

Sure, but in some cases, there's only UDP possible and additional there are
requirements for a reliable connection.

What cases would these be? As for reliability, you will essentially have to implement TCP (or something similar) over UDP to get a reliable connection.
