Daiki Ueno commented on a discussion on lib/record.c:

That is to distinguish the following cases:
- an empty Handshake message follows an incomplete Handshake message
- an empty Application Data message follows an incomplete Handshake message.

Both cases are error, but the latter should send unexpected_message alert.  Note that under TLS 1.3, all encrypted records have the Application Data content type, and it is not possible to determine the actual content type at this point.
