Diffserv wasn't chartered to solve the end to end QOS problem. It was chartered
to define coarse-grained class-of-service differentiation, which is an entirely
different (and much easier) goal.

General philosophical discussions of this kind belong on the diffserv-interest list,
not on this list. Please see
