Could QUIC also have been built on top of IP datagrams instead of UDP datagrams? Or does our crufty Internet mean only UDP and TCP are viable Internet protocols?

It is as you say. In theory you could build this as a new IP protocol next to TCP but in practice that would be blocked by default and can't be deployed.
