Throttling and blocking seeding of BitTorrent traffic, by any other name, is still throttling and blocking of BitTorrent traffic.
No semantic argument filled with lofty legalese is going to make this all go away. Depending on what comes of this, it just may define network neutrality, or lack thereof, for years to come.

To ensure any form of network neutrality, Comcast would have to have a site audit.

"sure he's guilty, he killed those boys. But the jury wants to let him off, and this gives them an out to find him not guilty, even though they know he did it". - John Grisham Novel
And that's exactly what this argument is. They know they shouldn't be doing it, and they know if they don't give the FCC a way to avoid b*tch slapping them for it, that's exactly what they'll get. But with an overly - extremely - bought and paid for- sympathetic FCC Commissioner, they need only give him a way to justify what they are doing as being consumer friendly.
