Most QUIC receivers are mobile phones, laptops, with wifi without GRO anyway...

Even if they had GRO, the inter-packet delay would be too high for GRO to be successful.

(vast majority of QUIC flows are < 100 Mbits because of the last mile hop)

GSO UDP is used on servers with clear gains, but there are not
really high speed receivers where GRO could be used.
