    From my standpoint, the major objection to L4S is that it is not 
incrementally deployable, because DCTCP starves conventional TCPs unless run 
through an isolated queue.  This is something we quickly realised when L4S was 
first announced.  It is simply not practical to require all middleboxes on the 
path to support L4S before L4S endpoints can safely be deployed, except in the 
isolated and very controlled environments where DCTCP was "proved".
    
[GW] But this isn't true!    L4S utilizes TCP Prague, which falls back to 
traditional congestion control if the bottleneck link doesn't provide 
isolation.
