How does React prevent stale hydration attachments when HTML streaming arrives out of order?

Expert React
Quick Answer React assigns each Suspense boundary a unique ID in the HTML stream. When streaming HTML chunks arrive, React's client-side code matches each chunk to its boundary ID. If chunks arrive out of order, React buffers them. DOM insertion happens in the correct boundary order regardless of network delivery order.

Answer

React buffers out-of-order chunks and only hydrates them when boundary segments are complete.
