Hi.

TCP Connection: (4 bytes)
SYN
SYN/ACK
ACK

TCP TearDown: (3 bytes)
FIN/ACK
ACK

7 bytes were considered overhead and optimized on a channel that needs an
SSL session.

seems hardly worth it...IMO

On the other hand it might make sense in case stuff like firewalls between client and server are considered which might induce additional and potentially quite larger costs for opening a completely new TCP connection. But I guess if that were the case, OP would have mentioned it.

  Best regards,
