The problem with your analysis is that the 'brainfart' was the best technical solution. It's the hodge-podge that the Coalition have changed to which is causing all the current problems.
I predicted all this kerfuffle when I first started this thread.
Having Rudd and Conroy come up with a brainfart which has gobbled up and continues to gobble up billions of our taxpayer dollars was doomed to failure.
Two bigger muppets in business I could never pick.
It's all downhill from here.

More like brilliant simplicity, connect everyone to the best available technology whatever the cost, billions for sure however the Noalition has to take responsibility for turning it into a dogs breakfast and the partial failure it has become.
I live in a Fibre NBN area and its wonderful.
Lucky you.
I live in a "Corroded Copper to the Home" area, could hit the next Exchange building with a pea shooter across the River, but won't even get a steam phone connection after the first drop of rain. When I was still on iiNet's ADSL, I managed to set a record of 111 transmission breaks in 24 hours. In the end, they gave up, refunded me the last year's ADSL subscription fees (but NOT the Telstra Line rental) and terminated the contract.
Luckily, our suburb is covered by VividWireless on 4G. Most of the time, I get speeds above 2Mbps, in the mornings even more than 10Mbps. As they're already working on 5G at rates in the order of of 100Gbps, I wonder when the FTTP-FTTH debate will be totally obsolete. In areas like ours, the cr@p CTTH infrastructure that Telstra sold for $Billions and refuses to maintain in working order, will render any NBN roll-out a waste of money.
Poor old Chris Pyne and his commentary about the NBN last night on QANDA = NFI = loud mouthed idiot.
Apparently the time length of five simultaneous movies is the benchmark of bandwidth.... and on 25 megs no less. We must be talking five of those ultra lo res B&W westerns from John Howard's relaxed 1950's, even then I reckon you wouldn't be able to get onto Aussie Stock forums LOL
Somewhere in a universe far far away we will be wanting bluray quality and god help us 4k resolution to enjoy current technology TVs : e.g. 60 frames per second.
Lucky you.

On what basis to you make that statement ?A former company director, Simon Hackett, has been outspokenly critical of the flawed plans, to the point that he quit his well-paid directorship rather than remaining associated with the waste and BS.
Mr Hackett, who joined the NBN Co board in 2013, attributed his departure to the growing needs of the Redflow business rather any frustration on his part on the state of the project.

A few days ago, the following was posted in this thread,
https://www.aussiestockforums.com/f...21778&page=196&p=907456&viewfull=1#post907456
still too complex?? from Merde-doch no less ..... took all of 3 seconds of looking, but that of corse means you want to look.
Despite the rather exuberant comments, Hackett is acutely aware that as much as he may wish it, NBN Co isn’t going to ditching FTTN. It's the least preferred option of deploying broadband but unfortunately it's also the most cost effective one.
My bolds.
Alternatively, he might be interested in his battery business.His statement on leaving NBN for his battery business is the usual twaffle that men gaining freedom say to lock the gate safely behind them.
Take that argument up with orr.Cost effective for now maybe, but what about when they have to replace the copper wire ?
My bolds.
On what basis to you make that statement ?
NBN Co director Simon Hackett has slammed the federal government's use of fibre-to-the-node technology as part of the national broadband network, saying he wishes it would disappear.
The Coalition's version of the NBN is heavily reliant on the technology, which provides slower broadband speeds at lower costs compared with Labor's preferred method of connecting homes and businesses directly to fibre optic cabling.
"Fibre to the node is the least-exciting part of the current policy – no argument," he said. "If I could wave a wand, it's the bit I'd be erasing."
Speaking at the Rewind/Fast Forward event in Sydney on Wednesday, Internode founder Mr Hackett said he was a strong supporter of connecting premises directly to fibre and was on the board of NBN Co to make it "as least worse as possible".
