I'm sure someone else must've seen it before.

Surely even assymetric peering agreements are mutually beneficial... ISPs 
are also content providers, either directly or through their customers... 
peering is going to have a flow-on effect in terms of reducing the cost of 
offering content to the people you peer with too, right?

Why all the focus on even or non-even-ness of up/down ratios in the first 
place?
