Again, you are looking only at today, how much bandwidth will you need in
10 years?

Other 5G benefits: Beam forming, network slicing, reduced latency and
support for UE desification, just to name a few.

What are the other benefits of 5G?   My 4G/LTE works when I go behind
things, miles from the tower, and delivers between 5 and 20 megabits
which is more than enough for anything I'm doing on a mobile device.

out on many of the other benefits.

And as far as WiFi goes, let me know when we have seamless national WiFi
roaming and handoffs, because only at that point will it beat 5G.
