GPON has been such a bad idea...

One fiber, One ISP port has always been the right way.

I disagree. GPON is WAY cheaper to deploy.

The right way does not mean cheaper.

Why is one fibre (actually you'd probably like 2 for upstream and downstream) to one customer the way to go? Even with >100 customers on a single fibre it should be possible to get everyone on 100 Gbit/s (although there are currently no standards for it). That will future proof for a long time.
