I'm still surprised at how hard it is to get people to understand that the
problem they're having (especially with real-time video like Zoom) isn't
bandwidth, but jitter and bloat...

Speed is easy to understand. I see a similar issue with space travel fans, who have trouble grasping how acceleration, not velocity, is the important factor in that domain. And when velocity is a factor, it's the vector, not the scalar, that counts. If only people got decent math educations....

Jitter and bloat aren't intuitive and need a lot more thinking and patience to understand. Perhaps we need a good animated cartoon to explain it.
