IMHO in building fiber should be NRC only, but if it has a MRC component (to pay for future troubleshooting or somesuch) it should be small, like $5/mo. That's $60 year to do nothing, and even if the $40 an hour fiber tech spends a hour troubleshooting _every fiber_ (which doesn't happen) the colo still makes money.
I would expect some kind of MRC if it has any SLA, service, or support attached. Or someone manages it and protects the infrastructure and enforces the rules of the facility. Or the facility uses that money to maintain the MMR. If it's a free for all where anyone can accidentally unplug it or cut it or rummage around in the overhead causing damage then free is fine. What I don't accept is variable pricing depending on what the xconnect is carrying or what it's for. I don't buy into the thought process that an xconnect is more expensive if it's carrying 10GbE vs. GigE when they're both SMF.
