As for the reasoning around FTTP and the cost or benefit of over 100Mb services, it’s simple. Everyone on a fibre service can get 100/40 now and faster speeds if required. However, for those on FTTN not everyone can even get 25/5 so forget 100/40 or anything faster. Also active equipment vs passive equipment, guess which one will fail more?
If you are so far away from the node that you are limited to 25mbs, then you're probably up for a substantial bill to upgrade to full FTTP.

I'm on FTTN, I'd love FTTP but happy to not pay the extortion to replace copper with fibre
