Yeps,

I have an example related to Redis [1], the server warns that the
connection will be closed because you reached out the maximum number
of connections.

But IMHO the example it's just that an example, if the connection at
some point was not broken/closed/... and some data came into the
buffer, this data should be put available for the user.
