Bug: Inacurate WebSocket representation in the Communication Protocols diagram #47

Hello, I think I found an issue on the first image Communication Protocols!

Websocket, as described are:

Real-time, bidirectional, persistent connections

Hence the connection should be represented as a bi-directional arrow in order to represent the data flow. It seems that the represented diagram would be more accurate for SSE (Server-Sent Events) which are uni-directional message channels which data-flow is in the exact direction represented by this diagram.
