What's particularly confusing is that this appears to be coming from the dev team themselves -- this isn't some rando pointing at an interesting unprepared github they found.

Like, if they're looking for publicity by sharing their github page, I'd expect the readme to have a basic elevator pitch, but their benchmarking section is a giant category error and it's missing even the most high level of summary as to what it is doing to achieve good throughput at high packet loss rates.
