It's not about tricking user space. This is how we used to behave.
ECONNREFUSED is what you got in a non-init namespace. So this is a
*regression fix*, not some kind of trick.
And there is absolutely nothing to "discuss" about regression fixes.
If people want to start auditing non-init namespaces, go right ahead.
But it will *not* happen by breaking old behavior that people depended
on.
