Those protocol discrimination and QoS concerns are possible results of "deep packet inspection" (how deep?) but just because these results are good does not mean we should accept DPI (~converse fallacy).
The article outlines some of the problems with DPI but does not make a compelling case. See http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Deep_packet_inspection#Deep_Packet_Inspection_at_Internet_service_providers http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Deep_packet_inspection#Deep_Pac... for some uses of DPI at the ISP level. Each of these use cases has negative features. Those are "the problem with DPI".
