That's the argument that POTS was making 20-30 years ago. But now it's just rotting in the ground in our area. In fact, just today I was driving by a telecom pedestal that some traffic had hit and was wondering if anybody even notices anymore. The next intersection there was one that was barely in better shape.
~100 years ago they built the telephone systems. ~50 years ago they built the cable systems. Sure, they can squeeze some more out of the cable, until they can't, at which point we're going to wish we had invested in some more modern infrastructure.
