I agree, but that's not ~necessarily~ the case, it depends on the quality of the implementation(s). Price & complexity is also an issue because the average citizen isn't going to want separate ATA (analogue telephone adapter), router, and WiFi boxes. But I think the biggest problem is that the reliability & operational quality of the national communications infrastructure is now dependent on all sorts of termination boxes of varying quality & integrity (except perhaps for FTTP installations). If the XYZ VoIP implementation always sounds "warbly" because the chipset is under-powered, or breaks up because QoS control is poor or non-existent, or contains malware the whole network suffers.
