   Tested with node 26.1.0

   Minimal repro

   import http from 'node:http';
   
   const msg = new http.OutgoingMessage();
   msg.destroy();
   
   const result = await Promise.race([
     new Promise((resolve) => {
       msg._writeRaw('data', (err) => resolve(err?.code ?? 'no error'));
     }),
     new Promise((resolve) => setTimeout(() => resolve('callback not called'), 100)),
   ]);
   
   console.log(result);

   Observed

   callback not called

   This is because _writeRaw() returns after destruction without invoking the callback

   Expected

   ERR_STREAM_DESTROYED

   This should match stream write callback behavior for already-destroyed streams.
