I still feel that making them a stream is more overhead than necessary. For instance, if you sent three new CIDs to the peer and the first is lost, if you have a stream design, the second two stay around longer than necessary on the sender side.

Overall, I'm still not sure of the problem that currently exists that this is the solution to. What doesn't work with the current model that would require this design to fix? I feel like we're at a phase where we should start taking changes required to fix a particular problem, not changes that (some believe) make for a cleaner design.
