It cannot be emphasized more clearly: TCP is a byte stream protocol.
This is quite true.
... There is NO WAY in TCP to indicate in
an out-of-band way that there is a 'record break'.
This is not quite true. You can certainly send OOB data via TCP. Urgent data are read out of byte order, if you like. This obscures your previous point, which is that TCP IS A BYTE STREAM PROTOCOL. Ahem.
