Another example.
Residential fiber networks can get messy very quickly, especially if its all based on AON instead of GPON, and requires a point to point connection between a customer's edge location and a site end location. Add in (older) coaxial networks in to the mix aswell, and you end up with thousands of bundles of fiber for even small towns.
Also, keeping all that organised requires rigerious discipline and maintenance to keep it all tidy and neat.
