What am I missing here?

So this house I'm buying was built in 2017. On my first quick pass through the house I noticed all the bedrooms had an ethernet jack, as well as one directly below the tv mount in the living room. I was so excited that finally someone had enough sense to wire a home.

Upon further inspection, because they just didn't look right, they're all phone jacks. Why would anyone wire an entire house, and the tv, for telephone and not ethernet?!

I'm not sure other than if they wanted a land line. Maybe cell reception is not good there.
@rjc36 Fun fact, I can see the cell tower from the house. I know the houses are all wired for fiber and cable, but I don't know if they ran any phone lines out there. It's hard to tell because everything is buried.

I have a land line still but it comes from my cable box so that could explain why one at the TV @SooperSarah
