I get it if the goal is to explore ideas, but any serious proposal that starts with "get rid of TCP/IP" isn't a serious proposal because that stipulation alone makes it dead on arrival. Unless you could convince major internet backbone providers to adopt a complete replacement because of fantastically convincing reasons, dropping TCP/IP simply isn't going to happen. Case in point: we've had a pretty damn good reason to migrate from IPv4 to IPv6 for decades now and we all know how well that's going.

maybe not today or tomorrow, but having an idea floating around helps people consider it in the far future if an architectural change becomes necessary
