> There is a possibility the server does not believe the handshake is confirmed but the client does.  In that case, if the client didn't keep listening on the old path when it migrated AND the server didn't send anything in 1-RTT, there would be a problem.

Yes. This is the case I am pointing out.

>  But don't we require both client and server to validate the path in this case, which would mean both would achieve handshake confirmation on the new path, if they had not done so previously?

I am not sure if there is a guarantee that handshake confirmation would be obtained before the path is validated, because the path might become validated while all the packets carrying 1-RTT ACKs get dropped. And at that point, the endpoints might cease sending 1-RTT packets to each other.
