  *   I think there is a risk that trying to piecemeal abstract language into the core transport document
Please don’t do this.  Maybe don’t do it ever.  QUIC is not an abstraction, it is bits on the wire with specific syntax and semantics. Turning IETF specifications into a semantic-only document, with all the attendant language issues, really hurts interop.
