This point also requires a response: >not specs for little pieces of it
The specs present an entire architecture, and not just little pieces. Most importantly they present a new link model for Internetworking where integrity verification becomes the joint responsibility of both intermediate and end systems (which can also apply error correction). This link model presents a new way of ensuring that as much good data as possible is delivered while minimizing retransmissions. This offers a more delay/disruption tolerant model for networks that are becoming more and more mobile and more and more interplanetary. And, it works with all packet sizes ranging from the very small to the very large.

That and some indication that there is buy-in for this among hardware vendors. This has been a glaring problem for decades, but no hardware vendor seems to want to go first.
