It's cheaper to wire one building than 200 buildings. 

If Optus have reasons for wiring one and not the other, then it would 
be nice to know these reasons.....and not make assumptions that could

Your best answer would be that you don't know. It would have been 
consistent with the lack of content in the rest of your post.
