Fortunately, that's not true everywhere, and municipal fiber is becoming more and more common.
The problem here is latency. It's entirely sufficient for most web browsing and video streaming use-cases, but it sucks for multiplayer gaming and other interactive use-cases (e.g. video calls). So while it's probably a solution for a lot of people, it's not really a replacement for physical cables.
