* All these concerns share an overlook of the practicalities of the web.*
There's nothing "practical" about HTTP/2.0. I've read the spec, since I was interested in it, and it confused the hell out of me. Then I learned that even people who implement networking specs for a living, and have tons of experience at it, are stuck trying to figure out how to implement the current spec.
So if you're going to push for shitty-but-practical, at least make sure you have the practical bit.
