While I agree with you in general I have to disagree about HTTP3. The reason we got it is because of middleboxes preventing the adoption of SCTP. And SCTP and QUIC solve very real needs in a good way, things which we could not solve with TCP. Maybe Google instead should have used their politucsl clout to push for Http over SCTP. But it is not like there was a suitable predecessor to HTTP3.

One, Zero, NextJS and so on all solve real problems on the level similar to what SCTP/QUIC does. That's my point. The seemingly endless churn has very good reasons. But of course the cost of the churn is still real too.
