My house has a hole where a cable tv contractor inserted a coax line that they ran all the way around the house, from the service drop to right outside the living room. This despite the house being wired with coax internally, including between these two points. There was a disconnect where someone had replaced a tee with a coupler some years ago, but this was easy for me to find and fix.

Years later I spoke with an ISP about an install and they proposed exactly the same thing. I think people do this a lot.
