Are these normal trace results?
Hello.
Please tell me, are these normal trace results? Those. if there are no losses on the final node, everything is in order?

The trace is ICMP. Handling ICMP, or at any rate handling pings and sending pongs, is the lowest priority task for any host, with very few exceptions. Therefore, even 100% losses do not mean anything. TCP or UDP ping would be more informative, but there are certain difficulties with them - in the absence of special software on the target host, the results will be very approximate.
Losses at intermediate nodes also do not mean anything. Firstly, routers have something to do even without replies to your pings, and secondly, you do not need to communicate with intermediate nodes. Does everything get to the target node? and even the answers - also come back all? well, nice. Here the packet transit time is a significant number. And even then, given the low priority, the passage of a TCP packet can be much faster.
