In terms of nostr, I think I would consider transport optimizations as a microoptimization. Many high speed data transfer protocols are run via TCP and don't consdier it to be enough of an issue to build a UDP enabled application layer.

However the other foundational principal for nostr is that it's primary focus is simplicity and availability with existing technology. Most applications/frameworks can more easily have access to websockets effectively giving them access to the transport with the help of http.

However I'm with buttercat1791 (npub1wqf…qsyn) relays that have the option to support or upgrade connections for clients that can receive them is a great direction to head in, but were still early, nostr needs working and tested software not optimizations at this stage.
