The real benefit is the ability to increase bandwidth usage without having to move. If you get a Quadcore server with 10 MBPS on a 10MBPS uplink port you are kind of screwed if you get a hun listing (even today the hun can still deliver some traffic) or if you grow and need more capacity. If you are on a newer switch with 10/100/1000 mbps uplink ability then your host has greater control and flexibility in how they can serve you as they can increase your capacity on the fly by changing settings to cap you at a higher level or charge you based on a metered usage method.
