A good question would be, who actually cares about ratios in the year
2019? Does anyone still calculate them and use them to decide
anything? If so, why does it matter?

We never have.

I find the exercise pointless. In fact, more than 90% of the time that I
have come across the ratio discussion has not been from engineers, but
rather, sales people that think they know a lot more about peering than
peering co-ordinators.

A large ISP somewhere between France and Poland comes to memory...
