with the side effect or disadvantage in comparison to HTTP/1.x, that two
separate TCP connection need not be neccessarily routed identical;

now think of a problem, that one of the two TCP connections gets closed;
the other one remains open and only one download gets broken;
in case of HTTP/2 this would be with all transmissions within the same TCP
transmission -> single-point-of-failure;

by the way, the samples were with HTTP/1.x and HTTP/2
