Maybe this is one of those things where "Worse is Better" [0] given HTTP/1.x will always receive more time/attention/resources than something that might be theoretically superior but never got the resources to fulfill its promise. Cloudflare is probably one of the few organizations outside of Google with an internal economic case to support QUIC. For everyone else there is the option of paying IBM for Aspera using FASP.
