There's a troll that I keep meeting. He uses many identities, but the 
arguments and tactics are unmistakable.

His question is invariably along the lines: "What application justifies 
the cost of fibre to the premises?"
My usual answer is that what justifies anything is a matter of opinion. 
What isn't a matter of opinion is the exponential rise in demand, as 
show by ABS figures. That exponential rise justifies fibre, as extensive 
as we can maintain in the century-or-so service life of the asset.
