QUIC still runs over UDP. Are you referring to MASQUE?

I should perhaps have said "works round" rather than fixes - yes, it has to run over UDP but the quic team had an explicit goal of not allowing the network to interfere further : see sec 3.3 and 7.5 of https://dl.acm.org/doi/pdf/10.1145/3098822.3098842

This now means that innovations based on Quic can occur

Since both QUIC and UDP are transport layers, does this mean that once switches and ISPs start supporting QUIC along side UDP and TCP, that a new version of QUIC can be released which doesn't require UDP?
