The real question is which ISP initiated this, and who are they targeting? My guess is something like, someone with cables or hardlines, targeting someone with a possibility of inconsistent connectivity. Like satellite or radio. So their "disclaimer" has to be a range. Hardline cables are almost always limited by priority. If your residential base package runs into the same data center from the same switchboard as Amazon fulfillment center? Amazon's premium business package is guaranteed priority over your Hulu stream. Radio can't guarantee a regulated speed. My internet drops to .5mb/s on a cloudy or foggy day.

But there’s a plus side, hit that sweet duct with hot air and cool trapped in a layer. Shiiiiit your inter webs be speed McQueen 3000. That’s the day you’ll have 30 endusers uploading 4k livestream twitchathon’s. Then you’ll never ever mention cloudy days again.
