It starts in the arch discussion in Sec 2:

   As shown in Figure 3, the Converter places its supplied information
   inside the handshake packets. 

That's what I refer to as "injection piggybacking"

   With TCP, the Converter protocol places the destination address and
   port number of the final Server in the payload of the SYN.

And that is the part that violates RFC793 semantics when that SYN reaches the 
final destination rather than the server-side proxy.

To be clear, I'm not interested in further trying to "fix" this mechanism so it 
can work. It can't and it shouldn't IMO. Let's use our cycles for more 
productive things.
