Another advantage of UDP is latency being reduced.
Without having to setup a connection for each group packets of data being
sent, they will be sent instantly and therefore arrive earlier.
Latency is of highest importance for realtime based games as it improves
realism and fairness in gameplay and many game developers requires the
freedom to take care of safety issues as packet losses themselves.

This concludes that UDP would be a benefit for GGS, game developers and
