That's a super idea.  Now explain how that works when you have access to
only a single broadband provider.  If you already thought of this
scenario, you're seriously underestimating the number of people in this
situation.

Reverting to 56k dialup to solve a mail relay problem on your only
choice for 3MB/512k service doesn't exactly sound reasonable.
