However, the australian NBN model is far superior because it enables far
more flexibility such as multicasting etc. PPPoE is useless overhead if
you have the right management tools to point a customer to his ISP. (and
it also means that the wholesale infrastructure can be switch based
intead of router based).


I'd agree.  Its a better way of doing L2 unbundling than PPPoE.  Its just
PPPoE had the sharing concept baked into it so it was easy for most
operators to use historically.
