To me, the additional speeds don't matter all that much.

I am presently in gale force winds, my boat rocking, and my latency
stable, and only about 50mbit down:

Maybe a little less packet loss would help, as my last (hour long)
videoconference broke up twice, and bbr is seriously outperforming
cubic. In addition for aiming for higher speeds, improving density and
reliability would be nice, but otherwise I am a pretty happy camper
with the service I have, compared to 5g.
