Makes perfect sense. The way DOCSIS and the Ethernet network where this is happening on BT handle congestion are quite different. Downstream congestion on VM looks kinda similar to the congestion on BT, obviously upstream congestion is completely different as you're comparing a full-duplex transmission medium against a TDMA request-grant medium with buffering done on individual CPEs.

Here's what bad 21CN congestion looks like.
