It is clear that using CE-based VPNs over the public Internet will have
different QoS properties, different SLAs and different accounting
frameworks. It's the applicability statement document's task to clearly
formulate that. And it's the SLA that will also reflect this from a
service perspective (a VPN scheme shouldn't promise what it can't
accomplish). But I don't think this means that it's "not viable".
