I suspect that you have NOT yet gone to the diffserv MIB to take
a look as to what those OIDs are representing. Once you do that,
I think it should be pretty clear.

No, this is incorrect. In earlier versions, they were OBJECT IDENTIFIERS
which basically DUPLICATED what was already in the MIB. And because of
that duplication I (in my role of PIB/MIB reviewer) recommended that the
OIDs from the MIB should be re-used.
