Agree. We've used this inbound as well on our links to our peers for P2P traffic. Works pretty well, as long as it's TCP and you're shaping it.

I understand why though. I've used inbound policing and shaping on heavily congested links with some success - it has the effect of applying back-pressure to the incoming streams - delaying ACKs and dropping packets; therefore slowing down subsequent traffic. It isn't perfect but it does work to a degree - it just isn't as good as outbound.
