That only works when the tiered plans are cheaper than the unlimited plans. In Verizon's case, at least, they are not. If I wasn't being grandfathered in, I'd be going from Unlimited to 2GB and paying exactly the same price. I'd be perfectly fine with tiered if the prices were reasonable and, as you suggest, cheaper if you use less data. That doesn't seem to be the case in reality.
