It's not clear to me what exactly you are referring to here.  If DiffServ is
something to be avoided, then something is wrong.

I think the goal is something akin to "get the appropriate and desired next
hop behavior if the ISP supports it" and get the ISPs out of the business of
trying to guess.  If you're worried about someone trying to use this work to
game the system, then I think a quota on the exploited DSCPs could provide
the necessary disincentive.
