    From Rob Swindell@1:103/705 to GitLab note in main/sbbs on Tue Feb 4 17:50:11 2025

    Why would we specify a socktype here (e.g. limiting to TCP sockets, in theory)?

    I would think for a function that's just resolving names to addresses, it wouldn't care what the transport protocol "the socket" is, so "Specifying 0 in this field indicates that socket addresses of any type can be returned by getaddrinfo()" would be more appropriate.

    This looks like a bug: missing `== 0` here?

    Yep, it does.

    But we don't actually want a separate answer for each socktype, and is seems like that would be valid.

    That said, I don't actually know why it's set.
