Just to be clear, I have built and operated a whole range of network platforms,
as well as diagnosing problems and planning deployments of systems that include
digital packet delivery in real contexts where cost and performance matter, for
nearly 40 years now. So this isn't only some kind of

Okay, from the tables on that page, it seems that the most asymmetric
maximal configuration is below 8:1. That's in line with what you'd expect
given transmit power and thus SNR differences.
Hence no legitimate reason to provision at 42:1 and above...

A quick look at https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/DOCSIS seems to reveal that there
typically is higher capacity for
+1 on all.
Except that Little's Law is very general as it applies to any ergodic
process.
It just derives from the law of large numbers. And BTW, Little's law is a
very powerful law.
We use it unconsciously all the time.

Forgive my ignorance, but does each channel have the same capacity in both

Well, the products are, because that's what the operators seems to want,
probably also because that's what the customers
