For the 3rd tier I assume that works pretty much like wifi spectrum,
right? It seems to be at about 3.5Ghz so that would be pretty short
distance. Other than handoff what other advantages does it have over wifi
(can wifi do seamless l2 handoff these days?)

Why would somebody want this over wifi? And what spectrum are they
using? They can't just camp on allocated spectrum, right?
