Trolleybusses and trams are basically indestructible. Normal busses only last like 20 years, electric busses even shorter, but trolleybusses and trams will last 100 years with proper maintenance. The only big wear part is really the tires on trolleybusses, which doesn't affect trams.
The main reason why old trams aren't run anymore is just because they're a bit small and noisy and not wheelchair accessible. That and car companies convinced cities to pave over their tram lines to be able to sell more cars.
Ask any engineer, ask any country in the world. Saying that satellite internet or mobile broadband is a reasonable replacement for fiber in any city, and you'll be laughed at.

but but but Obama invited Common Sense and he once made a song about Assata Shakur!
I don't think those assumptions were there originally, but there were definitely a ton of them post world war 2.
