issues were only due to the fact that certain admins didn't research it
before implementing. The MS Security Templates are often much improved when
adding bits and pieces of your own, (making your own ADM files or altering
existing ones.) MS defaults don't hold a lot of water much of the time but
are certainly good things to use if you're just learning active directory,
etc.
If you want to make sure users are not using QoS, just disable it using
group policy object> computer config>admin template>network>QoS packet..

And I'd follow the MS security templates... which are tested with their
patches.
Remember the issues with 05-051 [bypass traverse] occurred because admins
deviated from MS security guidance and didn't test.
