I’ve never had to consider transport level failures with this granularity. What work is one doing where this info becomes useful?

All kinds of critical systems, but how critical they are it depends both on domain and contracts.

Rather well known is payment processing, but also sensitive document chains, legal documents, but it might also be game saves (this one from experience: game progress was graded).

When adding limited time processing everything starts to be very complex very quickly :)
