A dumb question about torrenting and open ports

I’ve been using mobile internet for last few years and whenever i would try to seed it’d be like 0.2 kb/s at best. I know that it’s due to my dynamic IP (or whatever it’s called) and i have closed ports.

Then i saw some people say that opening your ports makes your connection better/faster because you’re able to connect not only to people with open ports, but closed ones aswell. Does it make sense download-speed-wise? Because how could i take traffic from someone who’s unable to seed due to closed ports?
