Yes, in interactive sessions. mosh synchronizes terminal state, it
doesn't allow random I/O between client and server.

It does not and cannot work. The way mosh works, is that it uses ssh to
log in and launch a mosh-server daemon. This daemon and the mosh client
then communicate via a custom UDP protocol. The SSH connection is closed
after the mosh-server has been launched as it is no longer needed.

The communication between the mosh client and server synchronizes
terminal state, somewhat like what screen/tmux do.
