From an ISP’s own point of view, at what point, it says, my outbound:inbound is something, so I’m Heavy Outbound.Often, just "We're eyeballs, so heavily inbound" or similar quick estimation with no real numbers attached. Otherwise, often whatever the ISP's management thinks will give the best results when trying to convince another network to peer rather than have to pay for transit, or other similar reasons often only vaguely connected to reality.
