Good question! I can't speak concretely to our plans for optimizations at that level of the stack at this stage, but it's true that speaking broadly QUIC does currently lag behind some of the performance optimizations that TCP has developed over the years, particularly in the area of crypto where hardware offload capabilities can have a major impact.

The good news is that there are strong incentives for the industry to develop performance optimizations for HTTP/3, and by also building atop QUIC, MoQ stands to benefit when such QUIC-stack optimizations come along.

Regarding GSO/GRO - I recently attended an ANRW presentation of a paper[1] which reached similar conclusions regarding kernel bypass. Given the topic of your thesis, I'd be curious to hear your thoughts on this paper's other conclusions.
