Due to the configeration of certain networks the tool can and does give inaacurate and misleading results.

I dont believe any ISP should build a Troubleshooting plan around BBR as fine as the site is.
An ISP will do itself a disservice if it configures its network in a way that causes common troubleshooting tools to produce misleading results. Unless it educates the public why the results are misleading and/or takes the time and effort to provide better tools, it will continue to get bad publicity.
