The "smol" in "smoltcp" is mostly talking about the internal architecture and exposed API. For example, it will never support true zero-copy sockets, because the API burden due to restricting itself to safe Rust is too high.

I don't think any TCP/IP implementation is going to be "haiku-like", the protocol stack is way too messy.
