I recall this article on QUIC disadvantages: https://www.reddit.com/r/programming/comments/1g7vv66/quic_i...

Seems like this is a step in the right direction to resole some of those issues. I suppose nothing is preventing it from getting hardware support in future network cards as well.

QUIC does not work very well for use cases like machine-to-machine traffic. However most of traffic in Internet today is from mobile phones to servers and it is were QUIC and HTTP 3 shine.

For other use cases we can keep using TCP.
