I really don’t follow your complaint. QUIC (and other similar UDP protocols like uTP used for BitTorrent) implement congestion control. If packets get dropped, the sender starts backing off which makes you a “fair” player on the public internet.
As for gaming, that remains an unsolved problem, but QUIC being UDP based isn’t any different than TCP. It’s not like middleware boxes are trying to detect specific UDP applications and data flows to prioritize protecting gaming traffic from drops, which I think is what you’re asking for.
