I like my version better. But YMMV, of course.

I don't think so. RFC 2616 section 8.1.1 mentiones pipelining as one
purpose of persistent connections. More specifically, section 8.1.2.2 says

   A client that supports persistent connections MAY "pipeline" its
   requests (i.e., send multiple requests without waiting for each
   response). A server MUST send its responses to those requests in the
   same order that the requests were received.

Obviously, fnord violates that MUST (it sometimes skips answers).

Bye,
