True, but it seems like chunked sending is broken somehow: Bug#6149
(GNU/Linux) and Bug#32438 (macOS) both show this.  (There may be
similar problems on MS Windows; I have not tested.)  If we say that
sending is done in chunks, users might infer that there are no such
problems.  Maybe we can add that system-dependent problems may occur
for input longer than 1 kB.
