hq is certainly quite complex, but is QUIC really that complex if you pare it down?  It's not that much more complicated than TLS and TCP.  I wouldn't be so presumptive about what can and cannot be done.  Also, @hardie was so kind as to point me at [RFC 2675](https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc2675), which suggests that 64k isn't the outer limit on packet size.
