When the telcos burried fibre in the ground they rightfully figured that it was just marginally more expensive to bury a cable with many times the strands they need at present. Saves all that digging cost in the future, and the cable was only a fraction of the permit and construction costs.

Maybe that's what the analyst is talking about, meaning that 97% of the installed fiber is still "dark"...not hooked up to any communications equipment.
