I still genuinely have no idea why they aren't just doing it via PPPoE with L2TP from CMTS functioning as a LAC to LNS. Seems nuts to have L2TP tunnels for each and every business client with no intermediate concentrator and the issues are clearly demonstrated here.

Presumably there's some caveat with the CMTS operating systems that prevent it, as I cannot think of any other reason. Certainly the one time such services were run on the legacy DOCSIS 1.0 platform it was via this method.
