The continued suppression of uplink speeds in simplified marketing helps users overlook a critical factor in ISP service. In other words, all the terrestrial access “wants to be fiber”. Example: We stayed at my frugal brother-in-law’s home, where he had purchased the low-end rate offered by his fiber-based ISP. It was 25Mbps, symmetrical rates. The bottom line is that this was a perfectly adequate service offer for zoom conferences and streaming video viewing. My measurements confirmed the rates, and that packet transfer had few defects. So for me, the 3 pillars are: sufficient capacity for *all* users involved, symmetrical uplink bit rate, and the upstream access protocol should converge to zilch*, all leading to few impairments, including latency.

There are those of us that are trying to get latency to the top of the heap, which has prerequisites of adequate bandwidth in both directions, but consumers aren't there and big providers are also very much not there. Still slinging 300x20 for reasons unknown unless it's to preserve CPU/Routing performance on aging hardware. All of the cross connects on the internet are full duplex so unless the access tech is limiting things... no good reason for the abysmal uploads in relation to downloads except to preserve underpowered hardware or to prevent customers for using it to push them to different service packages.
