We have some customers that do use iroh inside data centers.

You get the simplicity of being able to freely move nodes within the data center or even across data centers without having to reconfigure ip addresses. And once a connection is established the performance is comparable to a normal QUIC connection.

Regarding client server architectures: I frequently build systems where you use p2p connections but have clearly defined client and server roles at the application level. Absolutely nothing wrong with that, in fact I think a big problem with existing p2p projects is that they try to be p2p at application level and overcomplicate things.
