LARTC - Apr 2002 - HTB: child rate > parent rate

In his htb manual Devik writes:

"... The rate supplied for a parent should be the sum of the rates of its 
children.  (We may later describe how it can be useful to violate this
rule.)"

As far as I can tell this is not described anywhere.

Does it have any negative consequences to have child classes with higher 
rate/ceil than their parent when I''m using "inject 0"?

Thanks in advance!

I case of injecting the rate can be higher. However if I ever finish
new/faster version, injecting will not be supported as it is very
hard to implement (unfortunately).
