Primary for performance reasons. D-bus is an IPC system for processes in
the same machine so traversing the whole TCP/IP stack seems a little
overkill to me.
You haven't actually tested what the cost of this actually is, so what
you're saying is mere speculation.  In many cases TCP/UDP over
loopback is actually faster than AF_UNIX.

Since this is the premise of your whole rebuttal, I'll simply stop
reading here.
