Yes - the NBN is currently FTTN. Which is perfectly adequate (speeds of up to 1gbps are achievable from node to premises) and easier to upgrade. FTTP/FTTH same thing.
The problem is too many people focus on "what's the absolutely best technology" rather than "what's the best solution in terms or real world use". It's about thinking smarter. Something the current government is doing regarding the NBN. Ultimately, the future for the typical residential consumer is wireless. I already get 120mbps on my mobile phone! Better than the FTTP/FTTH I have at home.
ultimately as in 30 years or 60 if the LNP are in power? currently if you get a few people together the mobile network craps itself, good luck trying to move the population's primary usage to that. not to mention ping and the fact that fixed wireless NBN is 25mbit, nowhere near your "120mbit". plus if FTTN is so good how come your mobile has better internet.
in case you haven't noticed, the copper network needs replacing, the government is throwing billions of good money after bad
