So is it fair to ask if there is a relationship between people's
acceptance of poorer quality when the charging regime is very different
(and cheaper), just as there is an apparent relationship between
people's acceptance of poorer quality when there is a substantial
feature change (e.g., GSM in general)?

It's not like I'm just saying, "let the market decide", but rather
wondering if anyone has good guesses at what the decision might be
if ISPs focused on offering good-enough-for-data quality as usual,
rather than tightening things up to some ITU standard for delay&jitter.
