I'm curious. By natural extension of either: files (being a filesystem object), always returning 0 if no data, or sockets (being an IPC mechanism), always EAGAINing if no data. The pipe semantics make /sense/ of course, but they aren't The First Obvious Thing, because they're unique among the inode types; in many ways you can model pipes under this model as being files if writers vs sockets if none, but, well.
