It would be a huge expense to rewire a building with copper and they already got a working fiber system. Much can be said about GPON but it is actually quite stable and easy to manage.
I don't think anyone is saying replace the existing fibre with copper,
but instead to run cheap SFP-equipped switches in basically the same
topology as the GPON you described.
For a new build, less splitting and more copper in-building would be
cheaper and easier.
