 From the first spec:
"This is required for the case when a Neutron network maps to more than 
one physnets but the port's bandwidth request can be fulfilled from any 
physnet the port's network maps to."
So yes there is a use case that can only be supported if placement 
supports any traits in a_c query. It is to support multisegment neutron 
networks with QoS minimum bandwidth rule and with more than one segment 
mapped to physnet. A reason we did not discussed it in detail is that 
the use case was downprioritized on my side. (see

Did you forget to paste the etherpad link?
