We just need a GIANT Satellite in space that will emit static discharge
with infrared as a primary blanket of coverage using a laser beam to
feed it.
All looks good on paper :)

With 100% underground construction, fire doesn't bother it much.
However most folks probably don't realize that handholes will burn.
They are polymer concrete.

If you can gain entry to do that. Look at the major CA fire zones that
just happened: nobody was getting in for weeks on end. But I did see a
lot of emergency PCNs for new microwave paths that skipped over closed
areas. Nobody is going to let you work on a temporary splice next to a
building that's partially collapsed. Or a broken gas line. Or a broken
water line that's undermining the area. Roads/bridges can become
impassable in seconds. So many variables that could keep you out of
any given area you could shoot over with microwave much faster. With
fire tower sites are often defensible structures for fire crews.
In earthquake or fire disaster planning always include microwave. If
you have to realign you're guaranteed to only need access to the
endpoints not potentially X number of midpoints if there's more than
one fiber break.
