Not sure about BBR, since it implements BBRv1, which is known to be unfair in some situations (this is not a property of the FreeBSD implementation, but of the algorithm). I'm not sure about stable/13, since a lot of changes haven't been backported. We can discuss this at the next transport conference call. Are you interested to join (scheduled for May 5th, 15:00 UTC)?
