Comment:

 I would expect a client like JOSM to only download one thing at a time
 anyway, as it should only be downloading in response to a specific user
 request to download an area.

 More generally, that document specifies limits, not targets, so I don't
 want to do anything that encourages people to engage in attempting to
 maximise their usage up to those limits.
