I am more inclined to to think that the auto upgrades are phased in over such a long time to assess impact on existing network and if these result in localised utilisation, this is addressed on a retrospective basis. I am sure that some areas may have proactive upgrades in advance of the new speed tier announcements but from my experience, this may not be the majority.

In fact, it would be be good PR if VM detailed (at a high level) the "capacity work" investment done to prepare and support the new speed tiers. I never seem to hear any announcements of this type .. maybe a missed opportunity?
