And another way of putting it is:

Serialization and RPC frameworks are layers on top of
Socket/SocketStream which means that these things should not be in the
Socket class or SocketStream class. There are tons of such frameworks on
SM.

But of course, we could add something to the class comments pointing the
developer in the right direction.
