Oh... the cable is a lever, and the throughput is dependent on the force required to shift the electrons, which is far greater in the upstream direction than downstream...

No, wait, it's because uploading requires pushing the electrons against the much greater flow coming in, and household current just can't provide the necessary force. Even if it could, doing so would disrupt the flow and the cable TV signal would be degraded...


, because I'm not going to look for a more appropriate one.
