interactive, once basic bandwidth needs are slaked, which starts to happen once you crack the largest typical load (which these days is 4k video streaming).

gbit fiber is *way* on the unneeded side of the demand curve for home users.

I can make up credible scenarios where a home with 4-5 people would need 200-300 megabit/s of reliably available bandwidth, plus downloading something large, then you can make use of a gig. So not "way" unneeded.

I do have problems coming up with scenarios where you need more than a gig.

which kind of points out that you need business users to use it all up.

Business users actually use *less* bw than residential. People typically don't watch 4k video streams at work.

Btw, what does that report say? I don't want to spend money on it.
