I can imagine a time when I NEED THAT RIGHT NOW, where I could justify blowing through some of my ratio.

I can see a parallel with download accelerator software in a way. Some sites get really cranky (for good reason) when you make multiple parallel connections to their videos or whatever. You could put that software in the selfish category too, by that logic.
