Bandwidth isn't just increasing to meet future demand but to ease existing demand. I recall a conversation I had with an industry exec a few years back, they told me that bandwidth demand roughly doubled every year while all they could do to keep up was increase cell density, which isn't always viable or cheap.
I think there's way too much marketing on 5G like it's going to revolutionize telecoms overnight. It's going to ease some of the strain on the networks as its rolled out over the next few years, and hopefully provide better QoS eventually.
