The readable read-only property of the WebTransportDatagramDuplexStream interface returns a ReadableStream instance that can be used to unreliably read incoming datagrams from the stream.

"Unreliably" means that transmission of data is not guaranteed, nor is arrival in a specific order. This is fine in some situations and provides very fast delivery. For example, you might want to transmit regular game state updates where each message supersedes the last one that arrives, and order is not important.
