The more accurate version of what I said is "the BSD socket protocol is a direct reflection of the TCP state diagram; UDP and other socket types are hacked on top of it and can be a poor fit". Studying the TCP state diagram should make it clear why sockets work as they do, but all the rules go out the window if you're not doing TCP.
