The roles of client and server being force-swapped is another perhaps unfortunate development.

Why?

I think who should be client and who should be server is entirely context/application specific.

Sometimes I want to be able to connect to a server from any random client and continue the session.

Because now you never know which is which without a separate explanation. Might just as well call them A and B.
