I think that your goals are good.

In many cases around here, the higher speed connections are also more bloated,
and the challenge is convincing a home owner that they will get better
interactive performance on a VDSL2 than a FTTH, if they upgrade their router.
(This is particularly true if their wifi is slower than their downlink, and
also bloated)

It's about quality over quantity.
