No, that does not answer the question, nor is it a valid answer to the question. Being able to send UDP datagrams is obviously not the same as establishing a QUIC connection. You're missing the whole point of the importance of having a standard API to establish network connections.

Again, that's irrelevant and misses the whole point. Having access to a standard API to establish QUIC connections is as fundamental as having access to a standard API to establish a TCP connection.

The whole point of specifying standard APIs is to not have to search for and rely on random third-party projects to handle a fundamental aspect of your infrastructure.
