If your or any other environment favor link local traffic by special egress queuing and/or switching and it is therefore advantageously - why not! The whole diffserv thing should not overrated. It is a clean and nice basis to classify packets and it is up to the environment to treat a packet special or not. The RFCs provides a standardized recommendation to achieve a consistent view.
