Yes, and the reason it works (i.e., gets transported through
routers) is that the protocol underlying QUIC is IP, one of the
things the OP <b class="moz-txt-star"><span class="moz-txt-tag">*</span>also<span

<p>Ah ah ah! Good luck with that. Consider that despite lots of
investment, a quarter of a century after being standardized IPv6
only carries maybe 30 to 50% of the Internet traffic. Wholesale
replacement may happen if some radical new technology comes along,
maybe quantum networking if it turns out to be practical. But
failing that, the best that can happen is a series of small
updates.</p>
