This was driven by poor server + client support at large, and the complexity it introduced. LL-HLS instead uses byte ranges and open-ended ranges over HTTP/2 - almost Comet-style - to handle CMAF chunks.
> It is interesting to note that server push has been used in ways other than originally intended. One prominent example is to stream data from the server to the client, which will be better served by the upcoming WebTransport protocol.
