I could see a filtered approach to this possible....
1. 6Mbps/1Mbps across the board
2. 15Mbps/1.5Mbps for Comcast (aka vendor preferred) sites/protocols.

You are trying to open the whole net neutrality debate with that suggestion.

Re: Speedtests?

Just a little...business is business.

For items like Windows service packs, Linux Distros and a few other 'chosen' items, they could 'boost' service.
By offering the optimistic approach, they'd skate past Net Neutrality. Eg. We're not delaying any packets. We sell a 6Mbps service. We will offer free higher end service to our business associates for a cut, and you will be able to access their service at a higher than contracted rate.
Glass half full vs. Glass half empty approach.
