I'm a browser "with the latest in header compression", fetching a web page. I race a TCP-based ALPN run against an HTTPS record lookup (Chromium's behavior). Either the HTTP/2 ALPN wins the race, or the HTTPS DNS record does not exist. Both are, and will remain, common scenarios. So I fetch the page over HTTP/2. This is the initial request; dynamic HPACK hasn't kicked in. I download a 1.56kb HTTP response header:

Now, through `Alt-Svc` or an HTTPS record lookup, I discover HTTP/3 support. I download a render-blocking asset over an upgraded HTTP/3 connection. This is the first HTTP/3 request; dynamic QPACK compression hasn't kicked in. I download a 1.56kb HTTP response header:

I've burned 3.2kb on what may be a small page, for one header. Rendering hasn't started yet. Add headers this is meant to complement (`Document-Policy`, CSP, etc.), all with an expanding list of directives, and header size becomes a problem. This is before we consider clients that lack HPACK/QPACK support (nearly all HTTP libraries I've used), or resources on other domains.
