However TCP can be carried inside wg. And some things are carried from
an "inner" packet to a packet carried in some outer layer. I've not
looked at how things are done with wg(4) but it's not impossible that
something is carried across which shouldn't be.

People have definitely reported issues where some em(4) and some vio(4)
are involved. However there are various complexities: firstly these
drivers support various different types of interface with different
options, secondly the interface type where a packet is *received* is
involved. So for example a packet rx'd on some interface, wrapped in
wg(4), then tx'd on a TSO interface, may result in different behaviour
depending on whether the rx interface has LRO or not.
