Re: That's why

Do you think that if there was copper based service that the lighting strike would have spared the copper line? No, I don't think so either. The problem in that case wasn't fiber/copper, it was that lighting stroke the line. Nothing will protect against that ever, well, maybe a buried line. If it was copper based, it would have been much more probable that the copper would have been energized and anything attached to it inside the house likely would have been fried too.
