There seems to me to be a disconnect here, the core of which is this comment:


> Did I rant already that the vast majority of flows are non-saturating?

That's a bug, not a feature - and you seem to treat it as an unchangeable fact.
Despite the undebatable importance of bufferbloat and its impact on e2e packet latency, this is only one of the factors playing into the "latency" that I perceive when I click on the link as I surf the Internet.
Flow completion time has to do with saturation as well.

Cheers,
Michael
