I think a exception can be made for industrial service (infrastructure, bankterminals) run on a dedicated MPLS network. With low bandwidth <1Mbit/s but higher level of reliability (low packaging drop).
On a per app level is definition of no net neutrality.
I don’t think a big business should have an advantage over a small business that cannot afford that technology while using public airwaves. A better solution imo would be to prioritize all very low-bandwidth traffic.
Luckily, no one is buying 5G slices.
