What does “QUIC on top of TCP" even mean, given that QUIC is a UDP-based protocol?

In any case, it seems to me that this whole discussion is begging the question.  First, we should come to consensus as to what problem(s) we are trying to solve.  Then, and only then, we can decide whether 'RTP over QUIC’ is an appropriate way to solve these problem(s).

It may well turn out that 'RTP over QUIC’ is a solution in search of a problem.
