Not sure why you would need to move from FTTC to FTTP, as copper cable can handle 200-300Mbps anyway? But for such a tiny amount I'd do it.
But then, I consider myself lucky when I get up to 19Mbps. Mind you, I do live in the middle of nowhere - right inn the middle of the South East rolleyes can't expect things like a decent broadband connection or 5G can I?
Almost all FTTC is 80/20, and you'll only get 80 down if you live inside the cabinet !

My router told me I'm around 270 metres from the cabinet and I used to get 70/20.
