but by checking cpu usage during the speed-test, you can know if a cpu limitation (or the NIC is a limitation, by comparing to the link speed)Anything less than a Pi5 is going to be constrained by the hardware and will be considerably inaccurate.
A Pi4 (or below) accuracy could be significantly improved by using a non-secure connection ie http rather than https.
and can then just say "something over X mbit"
depending on how poor the ISP is,it may not be a problem
but it depends on if your planning to monitor a single connection, or test many customers
in my situation, i get 1500mbit down, but the ethernet ports are limited to 1000mbit
so its impossible for any 1 machine to properly measure the downlink
