The other thing I don't understand is why you minimize the expected VBR
effect.
What I don't understand is your certitude about specific impact.
There is a considerable difference between having a large effect -- which is
what any proponent of an IETF standard hopes for -- versus having a *particular*
impact.
Anyone who is certain of the second- and third- and fourth- order effects of
adopting a particular protocol is ignoring the pattern of surprise that
accompanies real-world developments for anything with a social component.
The reality of VBR is that it is almost entirely subject to social forces.
