Good day everyone,

Could somebody please explain to me the reasoning behind the
ENET_PACKET_FLAG_UNRELIABLE_FRAGMENT flag?

Why isn't this the default behavior for large unreliable packets
exceeding the MTU?

Do I understand correctly that without this flag, large unreliable
packets become de facto reliable? In my opinion, this violates the
principle of least astonishment, but I also think I'm probably missing
something important.

Thanks in advance.
