Don't think it's that simple. It may be a setting that only limits top-end speed. But both drivers agree ROS was on the wrong setting. Knowing this, it now appears to be 100% Rosberg's fault. Not just for selecting the wrong setting, but when he saw that Hamilton was coming on so much faster, he should've realized something was wrong, rather than just drive HAM off the road.
