First, John is talking about Section 7 of your doc. Second, there are a few parts of the doc that do need to be discussed, notably anything that goes beyond "and it's always been the case that a TCP connection can be terminated by the OS". In particular, Section 7 defines an API that is beyond the scope of this recommendation, IMO. But that's separate from taking this doc on. Let's finish that decision first, right?
