Without speed caps gamers out of luck

Without speed caps, file transfers would suck up network capacity and gamers would see ping times soar.

It is a trade-off.

High data transfer rates for those downloading and uploading very large files, versus better response times for gamers and those using voice over IP to transmit small volumes of data.
