Probably it is not self-evident why we HAVE to drop this connection.

It is evil connection. Good applications do read data from their sockets,
and evil ones do not. And ever if it is good, but silly or busy
application, good clients do not send so much data that application
can not process it. Am I wrong, there are any examples?
