Just guessing here, but I always thought REUSEADDR is useful if a server is shut down without chance to properly clean up. The socket would then be stuck in a wait state for some time, preventing you from restarting the server. With REUSEADDR you can start the server back up right away. Maybe REUSEPORT was used by accident, since it actually was a #define for REUSEADDR? -Kay
