I honestly suspect antitrust is the reason Google hasn't laid more fiber (not that antitrust is bad). They're dangerously close to being broken up for so many other things adding this would be a very high risk gambit. Especially because ISPs are known for their shitty business practices and leveraging lawyers to maximum pain on any legitimate competition that threatens them.
