Section 4.5 of quic-tls:

Early data within the TLS connection MUST NOT be used.  As it is for
   other TLS application data, a server MUST treat receiving early data
   on the TLS connection as a connection error of type
   PROTOCOL_VIOLATION.

As there is no way to express TLS application data (no record headers!) I believe there is no way for the proposed error condition to occur. I propose we strike the paragraph, though we might mention that this condition is impossible for clarity.
