IOW, even though a transport may "have" a protocol without a connection, nobody should care about that state, and nobody should be calling its methods (again, write() etc.) in that state. In fact, nobody except event loop internal code should ever have a reference to a transport in that state.

This is just not true. When the connection breaks, the protocol still has a reference to the transport and may still be trying to do things with the transport (because connection_lost() has not been called yet).
