Isn‘t sub-1500 bytes the norm for residential internet access? (DOCSIS and DSL with PPPoE are the most common access protocols here in Germany)

    Some of those (including many providers on Openreach) will support mini-jumbo frames that allow an MTU of 1500 inside pppoe.

Hard disagree... there are still a vast many providers around the world doing < 1500, such as PPPoE DSL.
