I think VM would be silly not to have it as a long term aspiration, but until they see their technology as a liability it's never really going to happen.
BT and the other operators would be wise to use it to their advantage with advertising, though.

This is very true.
Advertising is the key for any business.
Most consumers think that Full Fiber to the home is the goal you should be aiming for, as that is what they are told.
So Virgin really should be careful as their competitors (in the future) could use that to their advantage by saying they are providing FttH where Virgin are not.
Unless of course Virgin get better in advertising that their network isn't the same as others and can be a challenge to full fiber.
And Gamers hate virgin as it affects their gaming experience.
