Latency is a limitation for things that are generally relatively low bandwidth (interactive audio, zoom, etc.). Higher bandwidth won’t solve the latency problem
+1 IMO as we enter the 'post-gigabit era', an extra 1 Gbps to the home will matter less than 100 ms or 500 ms lower working latency (optimally sub-50 ms, if not sub-25 ms). The past is exclusively speed-focused -- the future will be speed + working latency + reliability/resiliency + consistency of QoE + security/protection + WiFi LAN quality.
I'd settle for the 100Mbit era having sub 25ms working latency. Which we've been achieving in fq_codel, cake, and even pie, for 10 years. I will file on this nprm, some variant of https://docs.google.com/document/d/1FjRo9MNnVOLh733SNPNyqaR1IFee7Q5qbMrmW1Pl... But I keep hoping more will sign on board. Perhaps finding a lawyer to proof it. And I'm not sure what hook to use on this nprm out of my existing evolving document without tieing myself to a chair with a variety of calming drugs handy. I'm an engineer, dang it, not a politician!
