The term UTP specifically was not immediately clear to me. In the context of TCP ... I thought it might be a typo for UDP.

Would be neat to use the full term with the abbreviation in brackets where it's first used in the readme. I wanted to offer an example, but I can't find what UTP is an abbreviation for. That or UTP could be a link to something, that would also make the project more accessible.

I believe it's Micro Transport Protocol (µTP) ... https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Micro_Transport_Protocol
