That is all sorts of miserable. I had an initial prototype that emulated UDP over SCTP, running QUIC (without encryption) on top. The problem is that SCTP becomes the bottleneck, plus it's super complicated.

I immediately jumped ship to WebTransport when Chrome added support. But I suppose there's no other option if you need P2P support in the browser.
