I would fix that document instead, to bring it from dreams of happy
fluffy bunnies to the realities of what's been seen to work.

Back in the day, we spent a considerable time at OLPC waiting for mesh

hope that all we needed was just one more bugfix. So don't trust the
networking performance statements of documents dating back to that
era.
