I dunno 'bout that- seems to me someone who knows enough to run Ethernet also knows that WiFi is a collision-detection protocol; I retrofit CAT6 into my current place just a couple of years ago, and while I have a mesh WiFi6 network at home (with Ethernet backhaul, of course) I also ensured all the TVs (most of them 4K) and as many computers as possible were on Ethernet.
