A lot of it actually does have to do with the market. Like I said, your average consumer is going to want faster downloads then uploads, so they can roll that as as the bulk/standard plan. The 1% are going to be for services like data centers, web/email servers etc., where the ISPs know they can offer a 'premium' service for an additional price.
