Perhaps I am being overly optimistic, but my takeaway from those slides 
is Apple were able to come-up with ways to deal with the middleboxes and 
so could indeed productively use TCP FastOpen.

"Overall, very good success-rate"
though tempered by
"But... middleboxes were a big issue in some ISPs..."

Though it doesn't get into how big (some connections, many, most, all?) 
and how many ISPs.

Just an anecdote...  Not that I am a "power user" of my iPhone running 
9.3.2 (13F69) nor that I know that anything I am using is the Apple 
Service stated as using TFO (mostly Safari, Mail and Messages) but if it 
is, I cannot say that any troubles under the covers have been noticed by me.
