the reason is, that tcp/ip works like this. it is a stream based
protocol, that is: message agnostic.
bytes are guaranteed one after each other, but there is no delimiter
between bytes.
if you need a delimiter, you have to transmit one (FUDI uses ";" as a
message delimiter; OSC-over-TCP transmits the message-length, so the
receiver can repratition the stream accordingly,
