Not a fan of port numbers.

Separation between address and port is vague.

Explain that to ICMP packets.


If we're going to replace TCP and UDP, initiate
the link with a name (e.g. dns name),

The point of TCP use IP address for identification is hosts
can confirm IP address is true by 3 way handshaking.

And UDP?
