That was one of the best explanations I have ever read. Nice one!

Doesn't explain "Connection reset by peer" though. I wonder if he
plugged the cable back in before triggering the client to send.
In this case, the server may have already figured out that the
connection was broken, and may be responding with a RST that means
"I don't acknowlege this connection.
