I believe for fiber it should be inside the prem, not outside. The same would apply for both residential and commercial.
I'd argue that the demarc needs to be outside. There are certain advantages to having easy access to the demarcation when troubleshooting, without the resident needing to be home to provide access. It also simplifies drop installation, since the details of outdoor drops are quite different than those of indoor cabling. The SP of choice can charge the customer for the demarc extension on installation, at which point the customer owns the extension just like they do for DSL, T1, etc...
