Clearly the infrastructure where you worked and lived and experienced had these kinds of issues in spades, many of us elsewhere have never experienced the problems you speak about - months longs outages, etc. I'm not saying they don't happen, I'm sure in crappy parts of whatever they certainly do happen, they just aren't universal.
It's the "gets lucky" effect. In infrastructure, you tend to get nine people with zero problems, and one with giant ones. If you work with lots of customers, regions, carriers, you start to get averages. If you only ever look at your own, or a few, you tend to either see insane numbers of outages, or zero. Most people report zero, but all reports of zero are meaningless. Just like RAID failures. This is why understanding WHY things fail is required, and all observation of success is meaningless.
Understanding statistics and failure dispersion is required here.

CenturyLink/AT&T/Verizon, etc are all carriers AND ISPs
But all, by law, and by physical necessity, MUST operate them as two different things. That one company owns two businesses is just common sense. That's not relevant, it's still bundling versus not bundling. And none of them pretend that they are combined, all of those sell them separately, proving the point.
