Given the kind of feedback happening (and my initial reaction admittedly was similar), maybe a different name would help with perception (I'm already not a big fan of "WebSockets", but "WebTCP" would have been worse), promoting the goals over the implementation detail of UDP?

If there is alternative transport protocol to enable low-latency delivery as efficient as UDP, then it is worth exploring.

UDP - is something been used by many industries for long time and is well known protocol to make a foundation from.
