FWIW, from the paper it sounds like not all Comcast cable modems
had/have PIE, which enabled the A/B experiment:

"10. Latency Measurement Results
As explained earlier, for two variants of XB6 cable modem gateway,
upstream DOCSIS-PIE AQM was enabled on the CGM4140COM (experiment)
variant but was not available on the TG3482G (control) variant during
the measurement period. The TG3482G variant used a buffer control
configuration that predated AQM in DOCSIS."
