VPN over TCP really is quite a bit slower than over UDP, which makes it quite undesirable for me. I think it's quite reasonable of them not to want to complicate the wg project by adding and maintaining the option of UDP over TCP. Remember, wg is supposed to be a minimal project. If you really need TCP traffic, you could always use openVPN. With quic on the way, this problem will diminish with time anyway.

There's complicating the protocol and complicating the client. It would definitely be nice if they would add a solution to this to the official clients, particularly mobile ones. VPN over UDP is quite a bit slower than over TCP when the ISP blocks/throttles the UDP traffic...
