You are not listening.

After all for time sensitive applications we do care how long it will
take to actually traverse a path in practice not what would be the
theoretical min amount of time needed for this path to be traversed.
And it does define it here as brand new metric.
Just read this paragraph as well as sections 3.1.2 and 3.2.2.
<http://3.2.2.>:
Similarly, exclude maximum link delay constraint is also defined in
this document. Links may have the link delay measured dynamically
and advertised in delay metric in IGP. For usecases that deploy low
latency flex-algo, may want to exclude links that have delay more
than a defined threshold.
Thx,
R.

we are not defining the metric here, we are defining the constraint
that
says what is the maximum value of that metric that can be used.
thanks,
