Maybe from [RFC 7540 - Hypertext Transfer Protocol Version 2 (HTTP/2)](https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc7540#section-2)

> Multiplexing of requests is achieved by having each HTTP request/ response exchange associated with its own stream ([Section 5](https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc7540#section-5)). Streams are largely independent of each other, so a blocked or stalled request or response does not prevent progress on other streams.
