>  # QUIC Packet Headers
 
-A QUIC packet is the content of the UDP datagrams exchanged by QUIC endpoints.
-This document describes the contents of those datagrams.
+QUIC endpoints exchange UDP datagrams that contain one or more QUIC packets.
+This section describes the invariant characteristics of a QUIC packet.  A
+version of QUIC could permit multiple QUIC packets in a single UDP datagram, but
+the invariant properties only describe the first packet in a datagram.

I agree with @martinthomson here. Since the long header length is version-specific, it's not possible to access any subsequent packets in the same UDP payload from just the invariants. Stating in the invariants that some QUIC versions might allow packet coalescing is not a design change, it's just a fact.
