No idea. This 'fix' doesn't make any sense.

  I'm skeptical and would like to see some etcd/golang github issues referenced on this.

  It makes perfect sense as "makes it 95% less likely to hit this bug." Notice from the write up that they already also modified their code to be resilient against the bug being hit at all, so "reducing the number of times the resilience code needs to be invoked by 95%" on top of that is a net win.

  This fix is supper common. There are tonnes of software that freak out when you don't send a message in single call hopefully resulting in one packet. People don't understand that TCP alone doesn't really handle application-level messages.
