If Clear had access to the exchanges, then we would be in the business of
unbundling the local loop - something that Telecom doesn't subscribe to.
Otherwise any reputable Telco (a la the US CLEC model) could co-locate their
gear in the exchanges and route the network traffic out to their networks
which could be a good thing (though unclear if Telstra/Saturn would agree)
