And you probably already know it, but macOS and FreeBSD have traffic

macOS uses PF right??

Yes.

I’m not getting you. You want a proposal made to macOS to rather use ALTQ in traffic shaping ??

No, I was just noting what it uses for reference and as an example of
the kind of capabilities it provides that I like (e.g., dummynet(4)
pipes and queues) and that I'd like in NPF.

Oh okay great great great. We can discuss more on that.
