I don't by the reasoning for never needing Nagle anymore. Sure, telnet isn't a thing today, but I bet there are still plenty of apps which do equivalent of:

     write(fd, "Host: ")
     write(fd, hostname)
     write(fd, "\r\n")
     write(fd, "Content-type: ")
     etc...

this may not be 40x overhead, but it'd still 5x or so.
