«you know SYN was dropped»

But you don't know who dropped it: the ISP or the remote server. In order to show it's the network between the client and server dropping it, you need a server that behaves in a known way, hence open.zorinaq.com I used to work in the InfoSec industry, running port scans from various locations, and open.zorinaq.com was incredibly useful to ensure there was no random firewall preventing us from finding certain open ports. That was the primary motivation why I built the service.
