I believe we are striving towards the same goal, which likely means to
separate the non-OSI path vs OSI path, as much as possible. Simply to
avoid any unnecessary operation being done in the non-OSI path. Right?

However, while I was trying to address that, I realized that it would
probably introduce even more changes to the series. Therefore, it
thought it may be better to address these kind of changes on top, as
improvements.

Does it make sense?

Kind regards
