Nah, you obviously don't. Wireless and wired aren't even in the same market. Normal consumers of the wired market would never use wireless as a replacement. Wireless doesn't have the capacity to support many users downloading at one time, Data caps for wireless are 2% of what wired ISPs offer, packet loss is way more severe, higher cost for consumer, ect..... Are you getting the hint of how a market is defined?

5G wireless capacity is/has been engineered to accommodate the same traffic as fixed connections, in the end wireless and fixed connections ride the same backbone networks. The edge of the network is not where the bottlenecking occurs.

The latest evolution in the core network is SDN (software defined) and Edge Computing. Edge Computing brings the necessary software/hardware to the edge of the cloud rather than into the core of the network mitigating the unnecessary transmission of data thus freeing up BW on the core network/backbone.

Omitted the other very important aspect of Edge Computing, reduces latency bigly.
