My point is; maybe you are the edge case… you are the one making over-généralisations. Which, through time, will likely be found to be plainly false.
There was a time when ISDN was deemed unnecessary for home users that were relegated to 56k bauds.

👌👍🤣
You just said if people were buying the telocos would scale up 🤣
