As for 10Mb ( 1.2MB approx) I don't know what the technical reasons would be for holding back, at least where 50 Mb download is operating.

The hardware isn't up to it in a lot of areas hence the problems, and the technical reasons are simply the amount of capacity they can offer. Your 5Mbps is coming out of a total 18Mbps of usable capacity, they increase it to 10Mbps it only takes two of you uploading at once to cause a fair few problems.
