Given that in both areas they run on the same equipment now pretty much nothing.
It does seem a bit odd that people on 20Mbit aren't allowed to install their own modem to go to 50Mbit due to signal issues yet many issues are caused by 20Mbit modems being pushed to the 50Mbit frequencies and that is done without any engineer attention.
It was a bit abrupt and Ben did restate in a somewhat less abrupt way, but it's really just policy. Practically there isn't really any reason now why 50Mbit needs an engineer install and the signals excuse did go out of the window when they started dragging cable modems from 402.75MHz and 586.75MHz down to 299MHz without being mindful in any way of power levels and the variations between those frequencies.
