I do fear that this feature will make a generic, independent DDoS solution practically impossible. The more I talk to folks on the DDoS side, the more push back I get from **any** type of coordination between backend servers and the DDoS device. If there is no coordination, then the device will not understand these aliased version numbers; and therefore will not be able to reply with a version specific response (Retry).

The **only** course of action the device will have is to send back a VN packet with a reserved field, and drop the incoming packets for new connections. This is definitely not ideal, as I have no idea how clients would use this for back off logic. I'd assume they'd immediately fallback to H2, but when would they try QUIC again?
