If there's 5G connectivity but no 5G devices on it, does it make a sound? Wait, no, that's not right

Re: Sincere comment

The question isn't whether or not there are increased benefits. The question is whether or not the benefits exceed the increased costs. Our current tech already presents a cost/benefit ratio that doesn't make it an obvious win for everybody.

With 5G, at least consumer use of 5G, it's very far from clear to me that the cost/benefit ratio is reasonable. Particularly if they're talking about 5G as a WiFi replacement.

The cost/benefit ration for industrial uses seems more favorable.
