Do you have any cites saying that this was actually rolled out? Or did
the project get cut during the financial crisis, and never actually
rolled out?

The issue I have with all these "cites" is that none of them are for
services that are up and running. They are all press releases about
something that will supposedly get built, maybe.

I still think that the link shows that the factors are more economic than regulatory. As you point out, even where the regulatory obstacles have been overcome, it is not clear that Verizon ever actually did their overbuild to become a third triple-play provider.
