A 20mbps shared limit for an entire neighborhood for a major cableco might have been the case 20 years ago when cable internet deployment was in its infancy.
While I agree that symmetric fiber would be better, my speeds are always consistently close to what I'm paying for and I'm one of those types of people that:
1) utilizes my upstream because of things like DR backups
2) treats cabelco with suspicion and thus records speeds, latency, packet loss stats continously
3) will pick up the phone and complain when I see problems until they are resolved to my satisfaction
For example, this is representative of what I typically see:

I count myself as one of the lucky ones and YMMV.
