Close but I have one additional point to make. Using the current anology of a trip to the beach. If you find that beach traffic is hampering main traffic on a highway, then access roads are built to get that specific traffic off the main highway to prevent all traffic from becoming congested.
In this same manner if high bandwidth usage is hampering the whole network than limit or redirect that traffic. Yes it may slow your ability to download BUT you still "get to the beach" AND you don't hinder the roadways that everyone else is using.
I'm not saying that this would be easy nor am I saying to target bitTorrent. Blanket this rule across all types of traffic.
