Fair point.

And I guess depending how it’s installed it may not be that hard to pull new fiber through without actually digging anything up, just from access at two ends.

I assume that's the point of the system - there are some long stretches of pipe at any place that pipe does anything there'll be some form of access point. So you get to the access point push fibre through to the next point (which could be a half a mile away in rural areas) and then do whatever termination you need. Repeat until broadband.
