I think you're right and I'm wrong. I was working with a confused threat model, stemming, I think, from conflating the ZEO client and the server. Tempting as that is, due to how tightly coupled they are and by the very nature of ZODB as a distributed memory, it's incorrect. There is still a client, a server, and separation between them with communications mediated by a protocol (that in principle anyone could implement).
