Ideally, I suspect that most people would prefer a more variable approach, allowing for the complete frequency spectrum for upload and download and any combination in between.
What people want, at least once thay have tasted it, is optical last mile. And not that PON shit. The real stuff or bust.
Let's be honest, it would be nice to utilize wasted download frequency to send something quicker.
Any access technology with less than 1Gbit symmetrical bandwidth is 20th century. Doing greenfield with that is plainly stupid. There is business to be made from smaller upgrades to copper that is in place, but as soon as you dig (or set new poles in the ground), fiber is the only real alternative. -- Måns Nilsson primary/secondary/besserwisser/machina MN-1334-RIPE +46 705 989668 I like your SNOOPY POSTER!!
