Eventually, which is what I was thinking of with the poll, both 10 and 20Mbit will be on the DOCSIS 3 network in backwards compatible mode, running as DOCSIS 2.
There may be, again eventually, multiple groups of 4 downstreams however this is unlikely in the shorter term due to upstream restrictions. My own area had to have a 3.2MHz slice of spectrum taken away from the legacy network for use on the DOCSIS 3 platform because there was no room for a 5th DOCSIS upstream here and that's not uncommon.

Monthly limits reduce average usage during all times, as the people who are most likely to cane the network will go elsewhere, or will pay extra for a wideband service.
