Why the fuck would I want that speed if I can only fully use it for less than a second before hitting the data cap? I'd rather have 100 times less speed with 100 times more cap, so I can actually fully use it however I want.

Also it's just ridiculous anyway because I don't even think hard drive write speeds are that fast.

I think you meant no data cap.
