Is it that useful? It'd boost reliability, but would it boost performance? If
you've got a card that can keep up with the wire, then you don't have any

Not necessarily for switched media. Consider a 100BaseT switch with a gigabit
uplink to the backbone - running 2 100Mbit lines may get you twice the
throughput of one. Maybe. Your Mileage May Vary, etc etc. ;)
