I don't know which side is doing this, other than I'm pretty sure it's the one with the lower budget. And if one day the parties are in the reversed position, they will both flip sides and be advocating for the opposite of t

One effect of a service degradation like you are describing is that people will hit Reload more often when things appear broken, further increasing the load. This can quickly lead to a cascade failure at a tipping point.
