As far as I can see, this is factually correct and quite helpful in
understanding the packet flow through the full chain of "things involved"
- great work.
It's missing a small detail (which is not easy to add, admittedly) for
point-to-multipoint servers: there is a routing table *inside* the
openvpn process (iroute), which decides which client the packet should
receive. This happens between "read from tun" and "compress" (as
the compression algorithm is per-client).
