Obviously, you have never visited any of the less clueful ISPs ;)
Some ISPs that started with 10Mbps hubs have moved up to 100Mbps hubs. For
their servers, and co-location customers.
Some ISPs vlan each customer. Many do something in between both
extremes. (Not that giving each customer a separate vlan is by any means
extreme!!!)
(Not to waste your reading time too much, but this was a topic of concern for
me. Currently I use a combination of 8 port OpenBSD router plus vlans on
OpenBSD to handle all ethernet connectivity in my building!)
