and I get how that could be. We had a design. Gave the prints to the contractors. Someone internally verified the contractors built what was on the prints. A year or two goes by and some laterals ended up costing more because handholes on the prints were never built. Our locator goes to a handhole to send his signal and the handhole doesn't exist or finds a handhole in a spot not on the prints.

So true. And not that young a problem. I leased some dark fiber more than a decade ago. They sent an unexpectedly expensive build proposal to connect my building. I asked: "Why are you trenching to the manhole down the street instead of the one right outside?" They asked, "what manhole?" Long story short, they dispatched a guy who popped the cover, pumped the water out of the vault and confirmed that they had a location they didn't know about.
