One could argue that while zeromq vs plain tcp reduces complexity (api, topology and more) greatly, zeromq vs plain udp is not that significant because udp is already rather simple. It is nice, but does it outweighs the downsides? I'm most concerned about availability: while zeromq does a great job, still udp is available virtually on every possible platform/compiler, which is important.
