FTTP vs FTTC

I keep seeing references to FTTP/FTTH, and there was something in a BBC article about this subject which said that FTTC is not good enough. In my experience, FTTC is plenty fast enough - on BT Infinity2 I get get >80meg down and c20 meg uplink.

Why the obsession with the more costly solution of getting fibre to every home when, for a lot of people, FTTC should still deliver a fast enough service?
