There may be some specific uses but it does seem to be mostly used
for selling bigger faster devices, they are also getting a lot more
expensive.
It is good that wifi gets faster and we got some more channels but
in typical congested areas it has been wasted on making wider channels
so each station can destroy more spectrum in one go and we are
back where we started - devices shouting over each other.
We run a WISP, 5GHz is a mess (more so with devices like Sky Q
making their own mesh clashing with existing wifi).
