I think that this PR makes the spec harder to read, with no obvious benefit. If someone wants to standardize QUIC over another medium, they'll have to write some sort of document for that, and simply saying "replace UDP with X" in that document should be good enough. I'd strongly prefer we didn't make the spec more generic at the cost of readability.
