In theory....
So far they don’t have a good track record.

I think it is due to electrons and water molecules not need individual routing.

Most water systems are municipal. A handful of electric companies are municipal. In principal there's no reason a municipal internet service couldn't succeed.

I think municipal broadband hasn't often worked out because people involved underestimate how difficult and/or expensive it's going to be. We could think up plenty of sarcastic ways to say this, but I think that's the root of the problem.

Not intentionally. I just copied and pasted the blurb from the vendor in the email. The RFP seems real. Ill conceived, intended, and with poor hindsight to other results perhaps but real all the same. I am not sure what else to expect from the communist state of California though.
