Do seeds actively connect to peers even when the download is complete? I haven't used BitTorrent in a very long time, but it didn't used to do that.
I am not sure, possibly not. Of course this isn't the ideal scenario, this is why port forwarding is still recommended, but you probably still get away without using it, if you download mostly freeleach and popular torrents. That way you can 1:1 the ratio during the download.
