Exactly. People asking for more penetration/range are asking for higher power devices that interfere with each other. In an increasingly interconnected and "smart" world, where even doorbells and light bulbs are networked, you really do not want higher penetration. Think it was bad getting interference on your headset when you put something in the microwave? Imagine how bad it would be if everyone had a "smart" home and all of those devices on the block were competing with each other for the same spectrum. Lower power, lower latency, lower penetration at reasonable bandwidths and lower costs should absolutely be the goal. That's not to say high penetration wireless doesn't have it's uses, it absolutely does, but those are few and far between in a consumer usecase, especially if you can run an affordable lower power, lower penetration meshnet that doesn't cause interference with your own devices, or with your neighbors.
