@alinaalina🏳️‍⚧️🐾 it's a pattern that repeats at every layer tbh. You need a dispatch point to select which of the next layer protocols will process the rest of the packet.

Now if you want to talk about ugly layering violations, meet my dishonourable friend IGMP/MLD snooping

@erincandescentErin 💽✨ @k4m1 @alinaalina🏳️‍⚧️🐾 the funny thing is that we designed systems to support a multitude of protocols. then we proceeded to only ever (commonly) use three of them (ARP, IPv4, IPv6)

but fear not! we designed IP to support a multitude of protocols too! and then we proceeded to only really use TCP and UDP. For an unwritten reason everything else has to match one of those now :))))

but fear not! we designed TCP/UDP to support a multitude of protocols too!!! and then we proceeded to block every port other than 80, 443 and 53, because everything is HTTP(S) or DNS now

but fear not! we designed^W slapped websockets on top of HTTP because THERE IS NO GOD
