It seems to me the whole idea of segmenting blocks would add very little
(to nothing) with any sane block size. Sure, if a block were to be
10GB, it may make sense. However, even in that case, it would be easier

Do you mean getdata? Here is the reason for the 6 new messages:
getseginv,seginv - These are for learning about what segments of a block a node
has. Else you could remove these messages and simply have nodes advertise
blocks via inventory messages. In this case nodes would have to wait until the

Here is a BIP draft for improving the block relaying and validation so that it
can be done in parallel and so that redundancy can be removed. This becomes
