With the existence of solutions like OpenMTCProuter, SDWAN, policy based
routing or any solution in general that allows combination in a sense of
any number of IP links, I really don't see a point for specific solutions.
Can anyone enlighten me?

For home users an issue may be IP blocks for certain services like Netflix
when the egress is out of a VPN or cloud provider richer than a residential
provider
