Consider a group of 10 users, who all create new content.  If each one
creates at a constant rate of 5 mbits, they need 5 up.  But to download
all the new content from the other 9, they need close to 50 down.

And when you expand to several billion people creating new content,
you need
a *huge* pipe down.  Bottom line is that perfect symmetry isn't needed for
content distribution - most people can't create content fast enough to
clog their uplink, but have trouble picking and choosing what to
downlink to
fit in the available bandwidth.

Isn't this a phenomenon of the state of our (uplink) networks?

Remove the restriction and see what happens?
