The initial cost is only part of the economic equation. There is a far greater cost in NOT going ahead with the FTTP solution. For starters, how soon before the /slight/ initial savings of FTTN are swallowed up, just due to the cost of operating the network (electrically) ? There are many more economic arguments, just one other would be lost productivity using the slower network.
