For practical purposes I agree, but in principle, why not? Especially in places where land-based ISP choice is not abundant or have crap speeds.

For example, my only choice is Comcast's 1.2Gbps/25Mbps service. If I need faster upload I have to tether to my phone. And I rarely get anywhere near that full 1.2Gbps down.

And there are people in areas even less well served by traditional ISPs where their primary Internet connection is wireless.
