If you were suggesting the line would be not worse affected under congestion, then yes maybe. But depends on the congestion I think, if the congestion hits after the buffer has grown then the larger buffers will probably give more throughput before they shrink. Thats my reckoning anyway.

In short router side QoS is pointless and a bad idea if there is frequent isp congestion.
