You are missing the point. What is happening is there are a lot of ISP
assuming that any encrypted traffic is torrent. So irrespective what
port you choose to use, as long as your traffic is encrypted - and
equipments like packeteer will easily flag this - your traffic will be
shaped.
Sad affair as most critical data are actually encrypted, but I guess
they have done their math and assumed its safe even with that
collateral damage involved.
