If I understand you correctly I highly doubt this is the case. If every
customer suddenly was to use the maximum link speed of their
access pipes I would be very surprised if all the traffic would be carried.
On the subject of tiered Internet you could argue that mobile/celluar
access to the Internet is another tier.
