In my market, almost everybody has a router CPE, if they have a CPE at all 
(in the ETTH with copper case, people often do not have a CPE at all, and 
if they do, it's a NAT box). I don't see the price difference of 
routed/bridged CPEs at all here.

As stated, they can use a tunneled approach if they don't want to do it 
"for real".

Please elaborate. I don't understand why you're saying that I don't 
like sensor networks because I want a routed CPE.
