"...You can run uucp over TCP (the 't' protocol I believe) and it is quite
efficient...."

Yes, but why should I?  What advantage is there to running uucp over TCP versus
running uucp over raw dial-up with V.32/42 modems?  Which approach costs less in
terms of equipment and operations expense?  Does anyone have any hard data about
these alternatives (Scott Bradner - a new frontier?!)?
