Following your argument, then why fair allocation exists in the first place?

When running benchmarks I am hacking the scheduler's "fair" tag allocation as well.
That's why I acked this change.

Since this change may affect the IO profile as a whole,
I think the platform owners should have the flexibility not to use it,
Should they choose to.
