So you're saying that if I put in an 8Mbps ADSL1 connection, then I'm going to get a guaranteed 8Mbps point-to-point back to the exchange, regardless of the quality of my phone line, or the distance from the exchange?

(I'm not saying that the article is right, but...)
ADSL systems will retrain to a lower rate as line conditions (SNR) change for the worse. The attentuation characteristics of a given pair will change of time due to a number of factor, including but not certainly limited to physical wear, moisture invasion, localized source of interference, sunspot activity etc. Are dsl plants subject to localized environmental conditions? Absolutely.
