Isn't it because the receiver is more likely to backhaul the traffic
further, due to hot-potato routing - at least in the case of large
networks with multiple points of interconnect?

Surely even assymetric peering agreements are mutually beneficial...
ISPs are also content providers, either directly or through their
customers... peering is going to have a flow-on effect in terms of
reducing the cost of offering content to the people you peer with

Why all the focus on even or non-even-ness of up/down ratios in the
