Yeah, it seems there's an older entry in there that's confusing. Not sure.
> There's no usecase mentioned that is not possible today
WebTransport does not really do anything that was previously impossible from an API standpoint, it improves on existing methods.
> Head Of Line blocking can be easily solved by opening multiple WebSocket connections. WebTransport just has that solved instead within the protocol.
Yes, and solving it within the protocol is simpler and more efficient.
> It needs a bunch of examples
Agreed, that would be nice.

The information on caniuse.com is indeed incorrect. > WebTransport does not really do anything that was previously impossible from an API standpoint, it improves on existing methods. Yup, that's why I want to see it widely supported. Any simplification is good for the web. Though WebTransport unfortunately does not improve on every aspect of the existing APIs. It also has limitations that WebRTC does not have like P2P or easily piping media for using in MediaStreams.
