I think you will, all of those things have been around for a long time

none generate the kind of traffic it takes to congest a decent link.
Most of the DOCSIS systems I've worked with are running at least 6 mbps
upstreams and many are well into the double digits. My current
connection (tested this morning) is about 22 mbps.
Um, no it's not vapor. Webrtc is quite real, and the barrier to implementation
for any random web site is weeks, not years as was the case before.
I just saw this that you wrote:

In the US, we just surpassed 1/2 of the population who have that capability,
iirc. They
call them phones nowadays.

Mike,
In my experience you're not alone, just in a really tiny group.
As I said I have direct eyeballs on ~500k devices and the
ability to see another 10 million anytime I want and the
percentage of people who cap their upstream in both of those
sample groups for more than 15 minutes (over the last 3 years)
is about 0.2%. Interestingly if a customer does it once they
have about a 70% chance of doing it regularly.
Well, given Sling, Dropbox, iCloud, pervasive video calls (you have
heard about webrtc, yes?
24/7 babycams!), youtube, etc, etc, I won't be a "tiny group" for long.
