But it is the point. QUIC allows to transfer streams of ordered data, not packets. Pure packets won't flow faster for UDP, TCP, QUIC, etc, therefore things like UDP-based video-streaming won't get any less latency if you migrate them from CUSTOM_PROTOCOL_OVER_UDP to CUSTOM_PROTOCOL_OVER_QUIC_OVER_UDP. And doing that would be generally just be doable using QUIC datagram extension - which is less in the scope of the project than ordered streams.
TCP-like workloads (e.g. HTTP requests) will have lower latency and higher performance due to 1 less round-trip during connection establishment, and more data being being available to congestion control and retransmit logic. The latter allows to be more efficient in the case of loss.
