It's distressing how little the tech press understands the real problem.

Of course, cable companies like Charter and ATT who have mostly DOCSIS 2 gear 
deployed can't admit to their plant being bloat-causing.

In fact it protects their cable business against cord cutters.

And the solution is needed in the CMTS once neighbors all start becoming 
heavier users, because it is a shared buffering pool with no fairness or bloat 
protection.

Still, routers with queue management that reduce bloat would help a lot, if 
"buffering" is seen frequently under load.

So why isn't anyone talking about this problem after at least a decade of 
knowing it, and knowing how to fix it?

I blame IETF members, individually and collectively. If ietf exists for any 
reason other than as a boondoggle for world travel, it's for resolving issues 
like this one.
