> UDP stack, which buffers packets until read
Not really. Or just up to a point only. Then it will drop them into the bit bucket without telling either the sender or receiver. With TCP the sender will "find out" eventually the receiver isn't getting the data.
The point is that with streams on top of UDP all that has to happen in the application layer.
