Software can fix latency. It can't, however, fix the fact that you have a ghetto ass connection and can't receive high resolution content from the server fast enough.

Wouldn't the only software fix be more efficient packet management by the switches?  And wouldn't that result in negligable gains?

No. If your latency is above 200ms for example, you wouldn't be able to join the server.

How is that fixing latency?  You're just banning people with high latency.

It makes the game enjoyable, because everyone in it will have a good latency.

It's not strictly false. Killing all poor people would solve poverty, at least for a short period of time. It's retarded, but not false.

There is a difference between solving a problem and hiding the problem. Furthermore, killing all poor people would not solve poverty.
