I'm not concerned with durability here (or I would have said so), but 
with _reliability_.

I see nothing in the API reference or the protocol specification to 
corroborate the assertion that ZMQ has similar primitives for 
reliability to AMQP.

The guide discusses reliability patterns that applications can build 
themselves given ZMQ does not provide primitives for that. (I'm not 
criticising that decision, merely clarifying the facts).
