In that case you have misunderstood.

Fibre is being introduced for the most part to improve things not to
replace them completely.

Nobody is running fibre to your home. It's only going to the nearby
cabinet if it's happening at all.

PSTN doesn't need fibre. The switch to IP for PSTN happens at the
exchange. It doesn't make sense to push that out to the cabinet.
