In many cases, like satellite Internet access or spotty mobile service, for sure. But if you have low bandwidth but fast response times, that 2mb is murder and the big pile o requests is NBD.If you have slow response times but good throughput, the 2MB is NBD but the requests are murder. An extreme and outdated example, but back when cable modems first became available, online FPS players were astonished to see how much better the ping times were for many dial up players. If you were downloading a floppy disk of information, the cable modem user would obviously blow them away, but their round trip time sucked! Like if you're on a totally reliable but low throughput LTE connection, the requests are NBD but the download is terrible. If you're on spotty 5g service, it's probably the opposite. If you're on, like, a heavily deprioritized MVNO with a slower device, they both super suck. It's not like optimization is free though, which is why it's important to have a solid UX research phase to get data on who is going to use it, and what their use case is.
