QOS or more bandwidth

How is TE part of QoS?  Maybe we are talking a different type of TE.  To me, 
TE is the part that the traffic takes, not really what queue it sits in to 
transmit.

I could see a arguement for QoS being part of TE, but...  (Assuming that you 
TE your netword so there is no conjestion.)

Everything that you said is correct.  However, you missed one
important part of QoS, which is TE.  TE is about avoiding congestion
in the first place by more efficiently using all of the bandwidth
you already have in the network.  To that extent, it is a substitute
for adding more pipe.
