 ### Bidirectional Stream States {#stream-bidi-states}
 
 A bidirectional stream is composed of a send stream and a receive stream.
-Implementations might represent the state of the bidirectional stream as a
-composite of the states of the constituent send and receive streams.  The
-simplest model presents the stream as "open" when either send or receive stream
-is in a non-terminal state and "closed" when both send and receive streams are
-in a terminal state.
