I don't think they understand that QoS policy at intermediate routers causes most of the observed "ping" delay while both buffering and TCP congestion handling mechanisms affect non-ping packet delays.

Most p0eople know that if you are talking to an astronaut on the moon there is a delay of several seconds with each transmission. So, even though the speed of the link is the speed of light for practical purposes, the data arrives several seconds later. Well, the same is true for the Internet.
They are confusing insignificant terrestrial fiber transit delays with other factors that contribute to overall ping delays.

If your router is smart, it will try to buffer the excess packets and they will arrive late What about a Netequalizer box that manipulates QoS buffers using perl code?  |
