Amen to that.
As I understand it it was mostly for the reason you cite - new and
exciting captive market opportunities.

Why does anyone comply with CALEA? Especially after the abuses of
the last 8 years and probably a lot farther back than that? I've
been reading about the requirements and the idea that ISPs cooperate
with law enforcement really makes me uneasy on a civil liberties
basis. Does Uncle Sam scare tactic people in to compliance? There's
just something about making things easier for the NSA and any number
of alphabet soup agencies that strikes me as unamerican (to use
their own phrase against them) and wrong. Or was it created simply
to create a new space for security products and C, J and the others
were really good at lobbying?
Since it doesn't require the ISP to break open encrypted traffic
it almost makes me think a public key system that lets the end user
encrypt everything from phone to television with their own keys
makes some sense so there's nothing left in the clear for
entertaining the James Bond crowd! Probably not practical at all but
this thread just convinced me not to use split tunneling.;)

when it was initially required, dark fiber providers won't need to

telecom service....but they generally wouldn't do it at the
physical layer.
