I've given more than a few lectures on how packets and queues and aqm are supposed to work, with very physical demos, using "packets as people", such as this one: https://blog.apnic.net/2020/01/22/bufferbloat-may-be-solved-but-its-not-over-yet/ https://blog.apnic.net/2020/01/22/bufferbloat-may-be-solved-...
I'm cited in the article, participated in the study, and have been trying to counter this mis-impression about "priority" vs filling the pipes, not the queues, as the answer to better network latency for many, many years now. It's still a tough slog, it seems, and I fear this will be a long day on reddit for me! But with comcast's now enormous and deployed existence proof, perhaps more will deeply grok it, and we'll see movement by other isps to apply the same technologies so all their users would benefit.
