From what I can tell, with Steam, I limited by the datacenter itself. I have friends in my local area, and also nearer the same datacenter, all on much higher bandwidths and write speed, but still hit 10Mbps at best.

Saying that, I am no Steam power-user. Most games will be <10GB with updates <1GB

At this point, I have no services or use cases for anything faster.

Symmetric 1G also lets you run services legit out of your home which is nice occasionally.
