It's intended to be a barebones IPC between 2 processes. It's not for Google to use for 100-gigabit control planes, or for web development.
(But fwiw, if you did want to inspect this traffic as human-readable, it would be insanely easy to create either a packet sniffer for this or add support to tcpdump/wireguard. It's just dumping a printf format code and some raw data onto the wire, so you just pick up a new frame, read the format code, snip the data from the frame, pass it to printf() with the format code and the data. It's like 12 lines of code, no library needed other than libc. As a hacker I find this way more exciting than using a bloated standard to pass utf-8 strings)
