Which is absolutely fine by me if that's the way they want to balance their
traffic.  My revenue is the same whether his circuit is 1% or 99% utilized.
I don't understand why you would have a problem with it?

If any of my upstream providers dictated that my traffic had to go through
them things would get exciting real quick, or I would have a different
provider.  This would be especially true in the case of a burstable circuit.

I have never had an upstream provider complain because my circuit was
under-utilized.
