Can't argue with you.

I suppose a lot of customers go for it because they need an Ethernet
service slower than 1Gbps, and 1Gbps via a DWDM service is pricier.

Where I've seen it be popular is in intercontinental circuits that
customers want in order to test a market with as little exposure as
possible.
