> Respectfully, that is a common and tempting argument, but no, no, and no. The raspberry pi 3 has a freaking dual core 64-bit 1.4Ghz processor that is more than fast enough to run full-screen video games at 60Hz.
Windows XP on a Pentium 4 was snappier than Windows 10 is on an i7 today.

Cool, so you're arguing for QoS. Thanks for supporting my argument.

Because in case of congestion (let's say everybody gets allotted 50 KB/s) you can't even watch video. Dozens of users trying to watch video at 50 KB/s aren't even watching video; they're just launching a DDoS attack. I'd be very happy to throttle them to 1 KB/s so I don't have to wait 10 seconds to receive a picture through Whatsapp.
You're arguing against the laws of physics here, and you're arguing that stupid users should be able to screw everybody else. No thanks.
