let the stupid guy ask questions.
In the worst  case don't answer, but no reason to get nervous.

Frankly, I do not understand this statement as it seems you tell me
that that would be the right choice as Google does it.
I believe that Google does it for technical reasons and that would be
part of your possible answers. You have the right not to share with the 
list of course.

FQ gives you flow isolation.
Extreme example: If you share the link with a flow that saturates the 
buffer (for whatever reason)
flow isolation gives you the comfort to do whatever works better for 
your application.
Without flow isolation how can you benefit from the good features of 
pacing if
the buffer get screwed by a competing flow?

This is what I meant with incentives to do pacing in presence of flow 
isolation, as you get rewarded
if the sender behaves better no matter what others do.

that's clear to me.
