They also don't let telcos that deploy fiber abandon copper, they make them maintain both. That makes it cost prohibitive and something Google doesn't have to deal with.

The FCC needs to take a stand and say you must supply either fiber or copper to your customers for the foreseeable future, but not both.
Ding! Ding! Ding! We have a winner! This is correct.
