I think you missed the point my friend, note the phrase "unlimited use".
My take on the increase to the top tier, is that NTL know that they do not have a legal case to take someone to court for what they call " excessive use " of an unlimited product.
So it is a lot easier to penalise the customers using the fastest connection speed, under the misconception that these customers are the ones causing the main problems with upstreaming.
