Re: Concern about the speed increase!

If you exceed the upload STM limit then upstream gets throttled - assuming you are on the upgraded upstream which is 1Mbps for L.
If you exceed the downstream STM limit then downstream gets throttled.
This all happens now and presumably will in future although there is supposed to be something new coming along but exactly what hasn't been announced.

Assuming you are on L and not a legacy product which I have no idea about you'll get increased STM limits along with the increased speeds.

You'll only get more throttling if you upload or download more than double the current limits. I don't see that light users (which you appear to be) have anything to fear - quite the reverse in fact.
