Is it correct to assume that the bufferbloat grade is based off of the difference between the idle latency and the upload / download latencies, and not some absolute value ranges of milliseconds?

It gets that grade because the Idle latency is so awful there is really little difference between idle latency and other latency measurements..

They clearly have some issues with their connection, PC or browser, with that kind of latency over cable. So the buffer bloat reading (or giving any grades for anything) are kind of meaningless.
