    No, nonono. There is a difference between upstream and downstream. The upload would not make general use noticeably slower.

      Wrong, you still need to send traffic to receive it. If upload is bottlenecked your net will feel increasingly sluggish

      You still need to send the acks when downloading. If the upload is saturated then you will still have issues downloading stuff, as either the acks are delayed or dropped.
