Direct queue priority in HTB

Linux Advanced Routing and Traffic Control

 Hi,
   newbie question. In sch_htb.c:htb_dequeue() there is a comment "try
to dequeue direct packets as high prio (!) to minimize cpu work". Does
that mean that any unclassified packet (no class/filter applicable) is
scheduled as the highest priority packet in HTB? If yes, what is the
reason that the direct queue is not treated as the lowest priority
best-effort?
TIA for any info.
