So you are going to prohibit the operator of the fiber plant from running 
layer 3 services, but then turn around and let them offer IPTV?  That 
seems quite inconsistent to me.  And just because it's "hard"?

Running a decent layer 3 service is "hard" too.  Isn't the whole point to 
let these service providers compete with each other on the quality and 
cost of their services?
