On: QUIC is not quick enough over fast internet

What does that have to do with anything here? This post is about QUIC performance, not TCP packet injection.

"Accept worse performance in order to fix security problems" is a standard tradeoff.

QUIC was invented to provide better performance for multiplexed HTTP/3 streams and the bufferbloat people love that it avoids middlebox protocol interference.

QUIC has never been about "worse performance" to avoid TCP packet injection.

Anybody who cares about TCP packet injection is using crypto (IPSec/Wireguard). If performant crypto is needed there are appliances which do it at wirespeed.
