Not necessarily with the fiber currently only doing 100/40

I actually get 114/44 with my fttn and the street cable distance
is much further than you would get in a normal block of flats.

Sure, fttp can do better in future, but currently doesn’t in that situation.

Bug advantage with fttp instead of fttb is that you can have more
than one service, but that obviously costs twice as much and it
would normally only be small businesses operating from home
in that bother with more than one, hoping that one will mostly
be available to use unless the fttp service itself falls over.
