What is this?  SEO?

Seriously though, I tried reading that several times before I could get all the way through to the end.  It's too much, even if somehow we could split that first sentence.

I know that you want to give an outline, but you need to concentrate on the MOST important things.  For me, that's the fact that it's a transport protocol and that it's secure and multiplexed.  Happy to add other things.  Though honestly, maybe only one or two things, such as maybe "reliable" or "connection-oriented"; my change took it to three things, which I think is plenty. 

Critically, the following don't belong: connection establishment (implied as necessary), wire format (implied by being a protocol), flow control (implied by multiplexing).
