> The fun fact is that fiber deployments are usually seriously improving latencies over copper ones which is what will get noticed when browsing casually.

thoroughly funny becase propagation of light in fibre is a tad slower than electricity in copper.

mostly irrelevant thou also because copper is usually only used in the last mile to the consumer and maybe in the datacenter.

totally agree on your point about latency.
