No business case in overbuild when you can upgrade your existing network to deliver gigabit speeds.

this is why developing countries are now getting better infrastructure as well as rural areas in the UK.
Romania is a lot of FTTP but that was because they built it fresh before that they had little infrastructure. So it seems the areas that are historically better such as urban areas are going to end up worse off. As you said due to business reasons although in the UK I think there is political reasons also.
As long as providers are able to extend the life of copper, they will do so.
