If A implies B, that doesn't mean that B implies A.

It does? I've yet to see any severe grammatical problems in your posts.

I'm talking about 'my experience' in day-to-day life, you're talking about
some of first-rate scientists and doctors studying the human brain. I give
up, what's the connection?

Perhaps you'd opened 20 connections with the same server. Perhaps you were
using a connection with a dynamic IP and the ISP decided to change your IP
at that very moment. Perhaps some computer between you and the server went
down and an alternate route had to be found to resent a few packets.... if
it downloads at 1.2m for 5 minutes then drops to 0 for 3 seconds then back
to 1.2, your average rate is still going to be very close to 1.2m
