I'm more saying fundamentally the reason peering is for-profit at all is because early providers wanted to be paid be governments for owning the infrastructure, there's no real cost at the BGP layer why a cost is incurred, even when transiting networks/ISPs/countries

I think my point is sort of that, we've decided that these free things cost money, so that companies can make money but when you scale that up and start talking about services like Twitch, which will have millions of simultaneous open connections with outbound data

Once one of those big companies that don't have to pay these fees decide "I could make some money off this free resource" everyone downstream gets punished.
I do agree with this to a point though, if you suddenly made bandwidth free odds are you'd have Network abuse, even if I can't predict the exact form it would take
