WDM is much more expensive than GPON.

I am still waiting for one of the 10G PON variants to become available. We
want to deliver 10G to customers as >1G is becoming common on CPE Wi-Fi
routers. But doing it with WDM is too expensive and p2p uses more fiber
than we have.

Passive CWDM is cheap and supports 10gig.
