I don't see how it could be the case, we're obviously telling the controller which
endpoints have priority over others, not telling nodes whether the data they
transfer can omit the queue.

I don't agree here either, with the current approach we've made countless mistakes
when converting the downstream data (I have already submitted some fixes with more
in flight), as there's tons of jumping around the code to find what goes where.
