    You can lose packets. Just cut the cable, but the other side will notice that the transmission is incomplete.

      Shouldn’t the engineer be a bit more worried if the cable’s been cut?

      If UDP drops packets it’s probably nothing. If TCP drops packets it’s because something’s actually wrong.
