An endpoint MUST NOT send data on any stream without ensuring that it is within
the data limits set by its peer. The cryptographic handshake stream, Stream 0,
is exempt from the connection-level data limits established by MAX_DATA. Data on
stream 0 other than the TLS ClientHello is still subject to stream-level data
limits and MAX_STREAM_DATA. The TLS ClientHello is exempt from flow control
because it needs to be sent in a single packet regardless of the server's flow
control state. This rule applies even for 0-RTT handshakes where the remembered
value of MAX_STREAM_DATA does not permit sending a full ClientHello.
stream 0 other than the initial cryptographic handshake message is still subject
to stream-level data limits and MAX_STREAM_DATA. This message is exempt
from flow control because it needs to be sent in a single packet regardless of
the server's flow control state. This rule applies even for 0-RTT handshakes
where the remembered value of MAX_STREAM_DATA would not permit sending a full
initial cryptographic handshake message.

Flow control is described in detail in {{flow-control}}, and congestion control
is described in the companion document {{QUIC-RECOVERY}}.
