That's downtime to address the brokenness, or loss of availability
>1% after you count time users waste trying to navigate large
carriers' confusing telephone IVR mazes designed to obscure access to
helpdesk, hold time, time waiting for callbacks, and finally,
non-resolution of double-NAT issue without user paying extra for
non-NAT IP; which is all different from network latency, and of much
greater impact than a latency increase <0.1ms.
