Yup. I took a swag at a generalized breakdown of "data transfer" costs https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=7479030 four years ago. The values might be slightly different today, the logic isnt.
I suppose part of the issue is marketing. The customer reads the bill as "bandwidth." Would consumers understand better if there was a separate "network infrastructure" line item? Would they accept differntial pricing for network quality or class? Dont see why we'd find out as long as theres no downward pricing pressure.
