OK, so then, lets call 30 days a calender month, just for arguments sake. You're happy to have a monthly cap of 500Gb, that's about 16.6Gb per day for 30 days.....see where I am going with this?
The point is, if there was no STM, you could easily use up that cap in a few days on the 20Mb service, I really don't think you'd be happy then to be capped?
If you check the STM triggers for the 20Mb service, you will actually see its possible and very easy to have your 16.6Gb per day of data plus more should you need it. All it takes is a small amount of planning, perhaps some download management software, and Bobs you parents brother.
Also keep in mind that even if you trigger the limits, your online gaming will not suffer (you're downgraded to 5Mb), nor will streaming video you seem to like too.
I do understand why poeple don't like STM, but if we look at the real impact on our own service, certainly on the upper tier then it isn't all that bad.
I'm not so sure that the USA isn't capping or shapping, and I do know of one US ISP that is being taken to task over its current plan to introduce some surprisngly low limits on their network.
