I guess it's a function of the kind of gigs I tend to work- The stage tends to not exist before we walk in. And if you've got 32+ stage inputs, it's certainly nicer to run a couple of fibre lines than a chonky stage snake with 32+ XLR lines.
The only difference between the digital boards you've seen is the digital conversion circuitry is not in the same box as the mixing circuitry.
Good point. I've seen some ridiculous snakes in my time! And an optical connection would presumably be less noisy even if it were analog.
