> We find that over fast Internet, the UDP+QUIC+HTTP/3 stack suffers a data rate reduction of up to 45.2% compared to the TCP+TLS+HTTP/2 counterpart.

Haven't read the whole paper yet, but below 600 Mbit/s is implied as being "Slow Internet" in the intro.

In Switzerland you get 25 Gbit/s for $60/month.

In 30 years it will be even faster. It would be silly to have to use older protocols to get line speed.
