Not sure if this is what y'all are talking about, but I use lots of Juniper
ACX5048 (previously Cisco ME3600 or ASR9000) for mpls-capable router edging in
native ip/ethernet from ftth gpon network into mpls l2circuits and LOTS of
vrf.... vrf for public ip, vrf for cgnat for private ip, vrf for voice... I'm
glad I did it.

Residential----fiber media converter---L2 switch-- and then the rest of
the setup you can re-use. AE isn't magic, insted of having an OLT,CMTS or
DSLAM you just have an L2 ethernet switch.
They're mostly just media converters anyway. 15 years ago I deployed ADSL
like this:
Residential---DSL modem---DSLAM----L3 switch
So DSL-modem---DSLAM was just doing RFC1843bridged over ATM. Just media
converters. Same thing, just different type of media converter.
