The support for AQM (PIE) is mandatory in D3.1 modems regardless of the US mode 
in use (ie sc-qam (3.0) or ofdma (3.1) upstream), so it should be enabled.

Are these in-flux changes to where the upstream split is why some modems report 
DOCSIS 3.1 downstream, but only 3.0 upstream? (and therefore aren't enabling 
AQM on the upstream?) -Aaron  ‌  ‌  ‌  ‌  ‌  ‌  ‌

Performance really takes a big step forward once a person has a D3.1 modem in 
their home, bringing OFDM and OFDMA as key advancements. Also in flux at the 
moment is where the upstream split is in cable networks, which are moving to 
mid-split or high-split designs that bring more upstream bandwidth. As well, 
over the past 18+ months, most cable networks have added substantially more 
upstream channels as well as performed quite a number of fiber node splits. And 
that is just below the physical layer stuff - there's also a lot of work at the 
software layer for modems and CMTSes that is quite interesting.
