The HFC acquisitions were a stupid commercial decision, given the technical limitations of the product.
CVC is a commercial construct, not a technical limitation. It can be changed on a whim, without affecting the ability of underlying infrastructure to deliver capability. When the original copper telephony was rolled out (late 19th century(, did anyone try to figure out what the future benefit would be? Did they anticipate email, the Web, Google, etc. etc? I doubt it. But it’s a very old network that’s delivered in spades since. But like $100 Lamb Roasts caused by the “great big carbon tax”, your backyard at risk because of Mabo & Wik, and so on, we didn’t learn from the past. Instead we are subject to the prevailing political verisimilitudes of our political leaders of the day. Unfortunately one of those happened to be a wrecker rather than a builder.

You are correct ... It most certainly is. As for another decision impaired choice, the purchase of two cable networks that are not fit for purpose, how much did that cost taxpayers? The price to acquire to use was the same price as aquire to not use. We're not talking about mobile any more are we? David.
