Estimates of the maximum bandwidths of all the human senses, combined,

accept more input. (Yes, machines could digest more... which means that
additional bandwidth to and from the home might be useful for the purpose
of spying on us.) What does this imply about the FCC's proposal to
redefine "broadband" as a symmetrical 10 Mbps?

That is per household, not per person.

And, in my experience, one needs around double or more of the listed
bandwidth for a robust streaming connection.
