[NNagain] pet peeves and policy recommendations

[Robert McMahon]

There are large NRE spends and advancements in WiFi around spectral efficiency, multilink operatons, ofdma and RUs, wider channels, lower latency, ap/sta densities, obss concurency, etc. 

The 802.11be standard is a good reference. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IEEE_802.11be

WiFi hasn't been abandoned like DSL, ATM, tokenring, etc. I think 802.11 will survive and have continuous improvements per this mass investment by industry players.
